You're right, sir. But we usually use the term current account when we talk about checking account kept by a business firm. It is often called a demand account as well. So they mean the same thing.

先生，你说的对。不过，当我们谈到企业持有的支票账户时，我们通常用往来账户这个术语。而且，它常常被称为活期账户。所以，他们实际上指的是同一件事。

Anybody, either a firm or an individual, may open a current account, but we normally call an individual account a personal checking account.

任何人，无论是企业还是个人都可以开立往账户，但是我们一般称个人账户为个人支票账户。
