    「fee」是為了「做某件事」或「請專業人士服務」而付的錢,例如報名費、學費、律師費。它跟 price(買東西的價格)、fare(車費/機票)、fine(罰款)不同——fee 通常是為了服務或參加資格而付。

core核心畫面

Picture the amount printed on the form: this is what it costs to , to enter, to have the lawyer look at your case. A fee is a set charge for a service or a right — not the price of a thing you take home.

可以想成:表格上印著的那個金額——報名要付這麼多、入場要付這麼多、請律師看一次案子要付這麼多。fee 是「取得某種服務或資格」的固定收費,不是買一件東西帶回家的價錢(那是 price)。這個區別是台灣學習者最常需要留意的地方。
