单词 invoice
释义

invoicen.

Brit. /ˈɪnvɔɪs/, U.S. /ˈɪnˌvɔɪs/
Forms: Also 1600s envoice, 1600s–1700s invoyce.
Etymology: apparently originally = invoyes, plural of invoy n., corresponding to 16th cent. French envoy (now envoi), < envoyer to send: compare French lettre d'envoi letter of consignment, invoice. Inferentially, this derivation is satisfactory, both as to meaning and form. In- from French and earlier English en- is usual; and the writing of -ce for the plural -s is found in other words, as dice, mice, pence, in some of which also, as accidence, bodice, dace, truce, the resulting form is treated as a singular. But the historical record is not complete: the examples of invoy, invoyes, are scanty and not very early, and an earlier envoy in this sense is not exemplified.
a. A list of the particular items of goods shipped or sent to a factor, consignee, or purchaser, with their value or prices, and charges.
