1. 1

    Emolument means money or another payment you get for work you have done — pay, a fee, sometimes extras that come with a job or an office. It is a very formal, old-fashioned word. You meet it in law, government, and official papers (rules about what a public person may take). Ordinary people say pay, salary, or fee. Though actually, it can cover more than a monthly salary: a payment in goods, a perk, a fee for holding a post. Students almost never need this in speech. If you use it at a shop, people will not think you are rude — they will just think the word is too grand for the room.

    酬勞、薪俸(非常書面;平常說薪水、報酬就好)
