买房买车买手机“0首付”用英语怎么说？
我们不要把英语down payment仅仅“读成”中文“首付”、“定金”好吗？这样一来我们学一句英语得到的只是一句对应的中文：我们难道仅仅是把英语“学成”中文吗？
你不会说英语down payment没关系，你会说下面的英语表达与down payment同样的意思吗？
1.Well,you know,down payment is a part of/a portion of/a percentage of the total sales price you pay for a house,for a car,or for a cell phone.
2.A down payment is usually a percentage,like 10 percent,or 20 percent, of the total sale price.
你可以不会说或者忘记说down payment，但是你说上面的高中英语应该不会有困难吧？
对方一样知道你在说down payment，但是，不要因为记这些英语“太难了”，你就干脆直接记中文“首付”轻松自如。你这是不想让自己的英语“进步”啊！
实用英语口语：
1.What is your down payment on this house?
= How much do I have to pay as down payment for this house?
No,it is zero down payment.
2.Sometimes you’ll hear people say：
Alex put 20 percent down on the house.
That means that Alex made a 20 percent down payment (on the house).
我不认为你有机会跟人用down payment这个英语(不管你现在练的多么溜)，也不会有机会跟人说Alex put 20 percent down on the house，或 Alex made a 20 percent down payment (on the house)这类“实用地道”的英语口语，但是，作为英语能力训练，你自己跟自己“说”英语
1.Well,you know,down payment is a part of/a portion of/a percentage of the total sales price you pay for a house,for a car,or for a cell phone.
2.A down payment is usually a percentage,like 10 percent,or 20 percent, of the total sale price还是随时随地有机会，而且是肯定做得到的。
这就是我们绝大多数学了英语没有使用英语的语言环境的人学习英语意义所在：学这句英语不是为了“用”这句英语，而是为了通过这句英语“用上”/“复习复习”我们学过的其它英语，从而在没有英语运用语言的环境下让我们的英语“长盛不衰”。
