Cultural Tip
In most Spanish‑speaking countries ‘revisar’ is the go‑to verb for ‘to check.’ In very formal contexts (e.g., legal documents or customer‑service scripts) you might hear ‘verificar’ instead. Also, when asking for a serial number, it’s polite to say ‘¿Podría indicarme el número de serie, por favor?’ rather than a blunt command.
