《柯林斯英汉双解大词典》

金钱是她从未具体想过的一种商品。

Money was a commodity she never thought about except in the abstract.

《柯林斯英汉双解大词典》

金钱是流通物，从这个口袋流到那个口袋，如果没有满足人们真实需要的商品的迁移，钞票这种信物就没必要存在。

Money is always circulating from one pocket to another. Without the commodity transfer to meet folks' needs, the existence of money as a medium is unnecessary.
