| 用法说明 | 在交易中使用'支付'。在正式和非正式场合都适用，比如支付账单、朋友或在商店。避免在非常随意的场合使用，像'分摊'可能更合适。Use 'pay' when giving money in a transaction. It's appropriate in both formal and informal contexts, such as paying bills, friends, or in shops. Avoid using it in very casual contexts where alternatives like 'chip in' might be more suitable. | “Wages”通常指给工人的定期付款，常按小时计算。避免在非常正式的场合使用；请改用“salary”（薪水）。Use 'wages' for regular payments to workers, often hourly. Avoid using in very formal contexts; use 'salary' instead. |
