ADVANCE SOMEONE MONEY

Good morning / afternoon / evening everyone, depending on when you are reading this. Welcome back to the Daily Vitamin. I hope you are doing well.

In the next few lessons we'll review words or phrases in English related to money and paying.

Today's expression is: to advance someone money.

It means: to give or lend someone money before the usual time.

Example 1:
I don't have enough money for my Christmas shopping, but my boss is going to advance me some money before payday.

Example 2: 
I know that payday is next Friday, but would it be possible for you to advance me some money in the next 24 hours?

As usual, I encourage you to create your own sentence (or two) with this expression to get some writing practice in English. You can post your sentences on one of our social media sites (Facebook or Bluesky) and we will give you feedback about them as soon as possible.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your day. 

All the best!
