bucks和dollars区别

　　bucks 和 dollars 在英语中都可以代表美元(USD)，但它们的使用场合和风格有所不同：

　　bucks 通常带有俚语色彩，使用起来比较口语化。这个词汇的来源可以追溯到18世纪美国边疆地区，当时动物皮(buckskin)被用作通用货币，因此“buck”后来成为了美元口语中的说法。"bucks"在俚语中有美元的意思，相当于"dollar"。这个词的原本意思是“公鹿”，在美洲殖民时期，土著们用buckskin(鹿皮)来充当货币，久而久之，buckskin便用来指代货币的基本单位，也用以代指后来的“美元”，并简写为buck。同时，使用bucks会让人听上去该物件比较便宜。

　　dollar 则更加书面化，常用于正式场合。它是一个比较标准的词汇，用于描述货币单位美元。dollars 美国、加拿大、澳大利亚等国货币单位，语气正式。

　　综上所述，虽然两者都表示相同的货币单位，但在使用上应根据具体语境和场合来选择合适的词汇。
