Tipping at a restaurant or cafe is a complicated issue. Should you leave a cash tip or is a card just as good? Do you prefer to pay a fixed service charge or do you think the whole thing is unnecessary? In 6 Minute English we discuss this tricky subject and discover some regional variations. Plus we serve up some useful vocabulary. VOCABULARY: tipping giving someone extra money as a thank you for good service i.e. Short for the Latin phrase 'id est' and means 'in other words' or 'that is'. It's used to indicate that what comes next is a clear definition of what was just said or written. differs is different the norm normal or usual tacit not spoken or written but still understood theoretically adverb used to describe something that can be done but probably won't be

sometimes, you have to tip the waiter more than one time in order to get served well, and sometimes more than one waiter!
If you don't give them as much as they expect, they could ignore you the next time you visit the restaurant
Restaurants are now for ostentatious and pretentious people, and I don't have to waste my money on such things
