| Text | In this podcast, the word "deposit" means an amount of money that one pays to use something, where the money is returned if the thing is given back to the company in good condition: "At some hotels, you have to leave a credit card or a $100 security deposit before you can get into the room." A "deposit" is also the money that is paid as part of a larger payment: "We made a 20% deposit for the cost of the new home, and now we have to make smaller payments every month for the next 30 years." When you go to the bank to put money in your account, you are making a deposit: "Please don't forget to make your deposit at the bank this afternoon." Finally, a "deposit" is a layer or minerals that are underground: "Lance made a lot of money when he found a gold deposit in his backyard." |
