salary 指专业人员和办公室工作人员按月领取的薪水。然而，谈论某人的 salary 时，通常会给出年薪的数额：I'm paid a salary of £5, 000 a year (我的年薪为 5, 000 英镑)。pay 的意思较为笼统，指从雇主那里得到的工资。体力劳动者领取的工资用 wages 或 a wage，其复数形式比单数形式更为常用，尤其在谈论某人实际领到的现金时：Every week he handed all his wages in cash to his wife (每个星期，他都把挣到的钱全部交给妻子)。wages 通常按小时或星期支付计算：a starting wage of five dollars an hour (每小时 5 美元的起薪)。income 指所有渠道的收入总和，包括工资。
