Podcast 1 — Introduction & meaning

Narrator: Today's word is Checkbook — noun, pronounced /ˈtʃɛkbʊk/, with the stress on check.

Narrator: A checkbook is a small book containing detachable blank forms that a bank account holder uses to make payments.

Narrator: In plain English, it is the physical pad of paper slips you sign to transfer money from your account to another person or business.

Narrator: The word is a straightforward compound of the noun check, referring to the document, and book, denoting the binding that keeps them together.

Narrator: A common collocation is balancing your checkbook, which describes the process of ensuring your records match the bank statement.

Narrator: It differs from a debit card, which is an electronic method of payment that deducts funds instantly without needing a paper slip.

Narrator: The term can also be used figuratively to describe financial resources, as in someone having an open checkbook for a project.

Narrator: Personal finance, small business accounting, and traditional banking operations are the primary fields that still rely on this tool.
