The Vietnamese word "chi phiếu" means "cheque" in English. A cheque is a written document that orders a bank to pay a certain amount of money from one person's account to another person or entity.
Tôi đã nhận một chi phiếu từ công ty.
(I received a cheque from the company.)
Bạn có thể lãnh chi phiếu tại ngân hàng.
(You can cash the cheque at the bank.)
In more advanced contexts, "chi phiếu" can be used in financial discussions or in legal documents. You might encounter phrases like: - "chi phiếu chuyển khoản" (transfer cheque) – a cheque that transfers funds from one account to another. - "chi phiếu bảo lãnh" (guarantee cheque) – a cheque that assures payment for a specific obligation.
While "chi phiếu" primarily means "cheque," it is important to note that in some contexts, it may refer to a broader category of financial instruments or vouchers depending on how it is used.
