FEE: meaning and examples

Good morning,

Today's Daily Vitamin is related to a comment made a few weeks ago by one of our readers who asked us how to say 'honorarios' in English.

Today's word is : FEE

It means: Money that you pay to a professional person (i.e. a lawyer, doctor, accountant, etc.) or a professional or public organization (i.e. a professional group, a department, a school, etc.) in exchange for the services that they offer.

Example 1:
Dr. Howard charges an initial consultation fee of forty-five pounds.

Example 2:
They've raised school fees by 15% this year in order to pay for new sports equipment.

Example 3:
Getting your driver's licence in the US is really inexpensive. There is an administrative fee of around 20 dollars to take the test, and renewing your licence is even cheaper.

If you have any questions or comments, remember to leave a post by clicking on the "add a comment" button in the Daily Vitamin section on our web.

Enjoy the rest of your day!
