1. 1nB1/ˈsæləri/薪水/月薪

    A fixed amount of money you are paid for your job, usually once a month.

    示範例句 · Example

    A teacher's starting salary here is about forty thousand dollars a year.

    逐字這裡一位老師的起薪大約是一年四萬元。

    「salary」指「公司按月(或按年)固定發給你的錢」,通常是有正式職位的工作領的。跟 wage 容易搞混:salary 多半是「月薪、年薪,金額固定」;wage 常指「按時薪或日薪計算」的工資。台灣說「薪水」「月薪」。

core核心畫面

Picture a number that has already been agreed before the work starts, and then arrives on the same day every month whether the month was busy or quiet. Salary can be thought of as a steady, pre-set amount attached to a position rather than to hours worked — the money that comes with the job itself.

可以想成一個在開始工作以前就談好的數字,之後每個月固定那一天就進帳,不管這個月忙還是閒。salary 比較像是「跟著這個職位走」的一筆固定金額,而不是按時數算出來的錢——它是這份工作本身附帶的收入。
