Hi everyone,

　

Today, I would like to share with you guys

some terms you can use for talking about

money in North America

(Canada and the US).

　

In Canada, we have different terms

for the amount in coins.

For example,

5cents - a nickel

10cents - a dime

25cents - a quarter

1 dollar - a loonie

2 dollars - a toonie

5 dollars - a fiver

(Loonie and Toonie is only in Canada

since the US does not have

one or two dollar coins).

　

For general terms for both

Canada and America,

you can use the term bucks

(meaning dollars)

i.e. a buck = $1, 5 bucks =$5, 100 bucks =$100. For $100,

you can also use the term - bills i.e. 1 bill ($100), 5 bills ($500).

In a casual setting,

people can also use the term -

cheddar or bread,

when talking about money

i.e. She's making a lot of bread =

She's making a lot of money

　

If you have any questions,

please feel free to let me know!

Oscar
