Customer: “I have $200”200美元。
谈论不同的账户:
银行会根据不同的服务级别或特点来命名账户。一般而言,只要是涉及到许多日交易的账户就是“current account”(现金账户)。
“My dad is a prestige banker” or 'I want to open an achiever account with my first pay check'.“我爸爸是一个有声望的银行家”或者我想用我的第一张工资支票开一个账户”

股份交易及海外投资:

银行手续费/服务费:
银行是通过收取服务手续费和征收利息来盈利的。你可能会问银行人员:

信用卡 & 借记卡 & 透支:
与通过“credit card”(信用卡)能使用“Credit”(信用)。当你的借记卡把钱从账户中拿出后,你之后可以使用信用卡。当你刷卡时,金额会立即“debited”(被记入到)你的账户中。
“overdraft”(透支)是指你的账户里的“debit balance”(借方差额)。“My account is overdrawn by $1000! I have to pay a lot of interest”我的账户透支了1000美元!我不得不支付很多利息。
