Current Entry¶âÍ» [¤­¤ó¤æ¤¦] /(n) monetary circulation/credit situation/(P)/ (1243290)
Headword 1¶âÍ»
Reading 1¤­¤ó¤æ¤¦
Part-of-speechn
English 1monetary circulation
English 2credit situation
CommentNeither "monetary circulation" nor "credit situation" mean anything to me nor do they appear to complement each other in any way. I would suggest the broad topic (in college intro economicas) of "money and banking" and "finance" to be better umbrella terms for this very important entry.
