Put down

Hi teachers,

Put down first, last and deposit.

Does "put down" mean writing out a check?

Thank you

Hi, It's really just a way of saying 'definitely gave' (eg placed / put down on the table). Cheque, cash, doesn't matter. Clive

Hi Clive,

Thank you for your explanation. There are so many definations to understand.

When someone asks you to put down your name, this means it's what the dictionary says: To write down. Maybe perphas on a piece of paper.

Thanks again

Hi,



That's a different meaning.



He put his name down on the list

is not the same as

He put his cup down on the table.
