| 单词 | IOU |
| 释义 | 我欠你 A written acknowledgment that a debt is owed. It derives from the statement ‘I owe you’. Whether an IOU is a promissory note of some other kind of instrument is a question of the intention of the issuer of the instrument. The necessary intention to constitute a promissory note is that the issuer intends to make a contractual promise to pay on the instrument, as distinct from any promise in an underlying transaction: Thomas v Hollier (1984) 53 ALR 39 (HC). See also Debt; Promissory note. 承認欠下債項的文件。來自「I owe you」的說法。IOU是否為其他某些另類文書的承付票，取決於文書發出人的意圖。構成承付票的所需意圖為，發出人意欲作出就該文書付款的合約承諾，這是有別於就所涉及的交易作出的任何其他承諾：Thomas v Hollier(1984) 53 ALR 39（高等法院）。另見 Debt; Promissory note。n. |
