We've already paid for the recorder.这架录音机我们已经付款了。 We've at last paid off all our debts.我们总算把所有的债都还清了。 They had to pay back the money they had borrowed.他们不得不归还所借的钱。 <辨析>pay for 意为“付......款”(give money for),其宾语通常是表示物件或东西的名词或代词。pay off 意为“偿还(债务等)”(pay all that is owed on a debt,etc.)。pay back 意为“归还(所借的钱)”(return money that has been borrowed),有时后面跟表示“债务”的名词,作“偿还(债务)”解。如:You ought to pay back your debts.你应当偿还你的债务。这两个短语中的 off 与 back 可与 pay 拆开使用,跟代词作宾语时,必须将代词放在两者之间。
