Quá khứ: spentPhân từ 2: spentV-ing: spending

This term carries a heavy association with resource depletion and financial outflow. It is often used in economic or budgetary contexts to describe the velocity of money moving from a holder to a provider. While neutral in a technical sense, in personal contexts it can lean toward a negative connotation if paired with words like excessive or reckless. Compared to expenditure, which is formal and clinical, spending feels more active and immediate. It evokes the physical or digital act of parting with money, whether it is a planned investment or an impulsive purchase.

Used as a general concept of financial outflow, such as in the phrase consumer spending is rising.
