expense
Significado
gasto, desembolso, costo, carga
El término "gasto" se refiere a la cantidad de dinero que se utiliza para adquirir bienes o servicios. Es comúnmente utilizado en contextos financieros o presupuestarios, donde se evalúa cuánto se ha invertido o se necesita invertir en una actividad o proyecto. Por ejemplo, al planificar unas vacaciones, es importante considerar todos los gastos involucrados, como el transporte, alojamiento y alimentación.
💡 Be careful not to confuse "expense" with "expenditure," as the latter refers more broadly to any spending.
