你知道“首付”用英语该怎么说吗?
down
payment 首付
down = in cash,是我们在买东西时付的现金。
You pay 5000
dollars down and the
remainder in installments.你先付5000美元现金,其余的分期付款。
“down
payment”组合起来就是我们说的“首付”。
I made/put a down
payment on a new
smart TV.我已经交了新智能电视机的首付货款。
He
proposes to pay a down
payment of $550 and the
remainder the next
morning.他提议付550美元的首付款,其余的在第二天早上付清。
英式英语中也可以说“
deposit”,名词的意思是“存款;预付款;定金”。
We paid/put a
deposit of £5,000 on the
house, and paid the
balance four
weeks later.我们交了5千英镑的购房预付款,并在4周后付清了余款。
有首付就会有尾款,从上面的例句我们可以看出来,“尾款”可以说“
balance”。
Let's
spend the
balance.咱们把尾款花了吧。
除此之外,“due”也可以表示“余款;尾款”,因为它作为形容词可以表示“欠债的,应支付的;应给的”。
The rent is due (=
should be paid) at the end of the
month.租金应在月底交。
balance due 尾款本金
这两个单词组合起来也是尾款的意思,来看看它的英文释义:
The
total principal still owed on a loan or
other debt. This does not
include interest that has not yet
accumulated.贷款或其他债务中仍欠的总本金,不包括尚未累积的利息。
所以“
balance due”指的是不含利息部分的“本金尾款”。
房贷车贷是压在现代人身上的负担,如果你每个月都要和它们打交道,那你知道用英语怎么说吗?
mortgage 房贷
They took out a £40,000
mortgage (= they
borrowed £40,000) to buy the
house.他们借了4万英镑的抵押贷款来买房子。
a
monthly mortgage payment 月供
They were
forced to give up
their home
because they couldn't pay the
monthly mortgage payment.他们被迫放弃了自己的房子,因为付不起月供。
经典电影《楚门的世界》里面,主人公说“车贷”是“car
payments”
She got
behind with her car
payments and the car was
repossessed.她拖欠了车贷,车子被收回了。
大家平时有没有分期付款买过什么东西?现在很多价格稍微高一点的电子产品都会提供分期付款服务。

We
agreed to pay for the car by/in instalments.我们同意分期付款购买小汽车。
美式英语一般写成“
installment”,但意思都是一样的。
