cashed
Definition
- Adjective:
- Having been exchanged for money; having had money paid for it: Describes something, typically a financial instrument like a check, that has been presented and converted into cash or for which payment has been received.
Usage
- The adjective cashed is used to describe a check, money order, or similar instrument that has been successfully converted into physical cash or its equivalent, meaning the funds have been collected. It indicates the completion of that specific transaction. It is not typically used to describe general payments for goods or services.
Examples
- (The check stub is from a check that has already been converted to cash.)
- (The money order has already been redeemed for cash.)
- (The check that was exchanged for cash serves as a receipt.)
Advanced Usage
- "to be cashed": This passive construction is common when referring to the instrument itself.
