This is "check" as in "examine". I don't think this works

How would you translate it?

Check it, please. ?

Yeah. "Check, please" is more or less fixed to mean "Счёт, пожалуйста", but adding an object would make it work like that

The same meaning:
#10854 (fra)
#656201 (epo)

I'd apply the same thing there. It's correct, it's just a fairly set phrase so it sounds odd. It's common enough that it has TV shows, webcomics, albums, and video games named after it

Yeah, "Please check" sounds fine
