الفرق بين :

cost - price - charge - value - expense

- نستخدم cost لكي نتحدث عن ما يجب أن ندفعه لشيء ما .

?How much did your CD player cost

This dress cost $ 75

?Will $ 100 cover the cost of books


- نستخدم price لمبلغ من المال يجب أن تدفعه لشراء شيئا ما .

Their prices seem pretty high

House prices have gone up again

The price of the vacation includes food and accommodation


- نستخدم charge ( الإسم والفعل ) لمبلغ من المال يجعلنا شخص ما ندفعه .

They charged me $ 45 for delivering the goods

? How much do you charge for a haircut

There is a minimum charge of $ 2 for the service


- نستخدم value لكي نقول كم يساوي شيئا ما مثل المجوهرات أو الأثاث .

He sold the house for much less than its real value

?Did the thieves take anything of value
( anything that was worth much money = )

A painting valued at $ 5 million


- نستخدم expense عندما نريد أن نتحدث عن شيء ما يكلف كثير من المال .
