US paper currency has had many nick names. The notes themselves are generally referred to as bills and any combination of US notes and coins as bucks. - Federal Reserve Note from Wikipedia
(그러니까 five-dollar bill 또는 fifty bucks 이렇게 얘기하는 거다)
- Bill or Paper money
- Banknotes
There are 7 types of bills that are currently used, $1, $2, $5, $10, $20 $50, and $100. I hardly see to use bills larger than $20.
(실생활에서는 $20 까지만 많이 쓰는 모양이다. 처음 미국 출장 갔을 때 Market에서 약간의 물건을 사고 $50를 내밀었더니 점원이 당황하던 기억이 난다.) - Large denominations
Today, there is no bill larger than $100. At one time, however, 5 larger denominations, $500, $1,000, $5,000, $10,000, $100,000 were issued. One thousand dollars can be referenced as "Large", "K", "Grand or "Stack".
- Coinage
- Today circulating coins exist in denominations: $0.01, $0.05, $0.10, $0.25, $0.50, and $1.00.
(1¢(Cent)는 Penny로 100개 있어야 $1가 된다. 우리식으로하면 10원. 5¢는 Nickel 그러니까 50원. 10¢는 1Dime이며 1¢보다 작다. 100원에 해당하니 만만히 볼 넘이 아니다. 다음 $1/4에 해당하는 Quarter가 있다. 우리식으로 하면 250원이니 애매하다. 이외에 50¢(50-cent, Half dollar or piece)와 $1(Golden dollar)가 있는데 잘 통용되지는 않는다고 한다. )
