receipt

他動詞[C/U] 両方

複数形: receipts過去形: receipted過去分詞: receipted現在分詞: receipting

This word carries a strong association with proof and verification. It functions as a tangible anchor of a transaction, transforming an invisible exchange of value into a permanent record. In commercial settings, it is the ultimate evidence of ownership or payment, often triggering a sense of security or legal protection for the buyer. Beyond commerce, the term evokes the moment of arrival. Whether it is a letter, a signal, or a physical gift, the act of receipt marks the transition of an object from a state of transit to a state of possession. It is a formal point of handover that concludes a process of delivery.

Countable when referring to the small slip of paper given by a cashier. Uncountable when referring to the general act of receiving goods or funds.
