A receipt is a written acknowledgement of a transaction. In formal business or accounting contexts, the full term ใบเสร็จรับเงิน is often used to denote an official receipt. To ask for a receipt, you can use the phrase ขอใบเสร็จ.
What does it mean word for word?
The word ใบเสร็จ (bai-sèt) is composed of ใบ (bai), meaning sheet or leaf and เสร็จ (sèt), meaning finished or completed.
Which one should you use?
While ใบเสร็จ (bai-sèt) is the more general term for a receipt, other forms specify the type of acknowledgement. Use ใบรับเงิน (bai-ráp-ngən) to specifically emphasize the receipt of money, and use ใบรับของ (bai-ráp-kɔ̌ɔng) when acknowledging the receipt of physical goods or items rather than a payment. ใบรับ is also a form of the word.
How do you pronounce it?
The romanization is bai-sèt.
Did you know?
- In Thai, the word ใบ (bai), which means 'leaf', serves as the classifier for these paper documents.
- If you only say ใบเสร็จ (bai-sèt) in a shop, the clerk will understand you want a paper record of the transaction, but if you need to claim a tax deduction, you must specifically ask for the formal ใบเสร็จรับเงิน (bai-sèt-ráp-ngən).
- A Thai speaker might use the word เสร็จ (sèt) to mean 'done' in many other contexts, such as finishing a meal or a task, which is the same root found in 'receipt'.
