当酒吧老板摇铃时，表示最后点单——这是关门前买酒的最后机会。最后点单之后通常还有'饮完时间'，之后会宣布'时间到'，你必须离开。铃声一响，大家往往会涌向吧台。

Cuando el dueño del pub toca la campana, indica la última ronda: tu última oportunidad de comprar bebidas antes del cierre. Después de la última ronda, suele haber un 'drinking-up time' (tiempo para terminar) antes de que se anuncie 'time' y debas irte. La campana crea urgencia y a menudo una avalancha hacia la barra.

店主がベルを鳴らすと、それはラストオーダーの合図です。閉店前に飲み物を注文できる最後のチャンスです。ラストオーダーの後は通常「ドリンキングアップタイム」（飲み干し時間）があり、その後「タイム」が告げられて退店しなければなりません。ベルが鳴ると急いでバーに向かう人が多くなります。

주인이 종을 울리면 라스트 오더, 즉 마지막으로 음료를 주문할 수 있는 기회를 알리는 것이다. 라스트 오더 후에는 보통 '음료를 다 마시는 시간(drinking-up time)'이 있고, 그 후 'time'이 선언되면 나가야 한다. 종소리는 긴박감을 주어 바로 몰리는 상황을 만든다.
