How do you tell someone they owe money in spanish?

Question

I need to know how you tell someone they owe money in spanish'? I can find money and bill and owe but I have no idea how to put it together in a sentence. Thanks!

Answer 1

Pues comunmente le dices a alguien que te debe dinero "tu me debes dinero" o para ser más especifico "tu me debes 50 dólares". OWE=DEBER, es una deuda, y ahora sólo conjugas el verbo: ella debe, él debe, yo debo, nosostros debemos, ellos deben.

¡Ellos me deben mucho dinero, así que voy a cobrarles ahora mismo!

Answer 2

Usted debe $141 (ciento cuarenta y un euros/pesetas/dolares) con 26 (veintiseis centavos).

Usted tiene un balance de $141 (ciento cuarenta y un euros/pesetas/dolares) con 26 (veintiseis centavos).

Su adeudo es de $141 (ciento cuarenta y un euros/pesetas/dolares) con 26 (veintiseis centavos).

Answer 3

I think the $ comes afterwards? And of course, commas and decimal points are reversed. 141,26$

This is not true in Mexico, which uses the US system.

Sorry, this is the first time I have posted anything so I wasn't sure exactly what I should put. I handle accounts receivable for my company so whomever I am speaking with will always owe my company.I would be saying something like:"you owe $141.26.""$141.26 is owed.""we need to clear this bill of $141.26"Thanks for your help everyone!!!

For the first two:

*Usted nos debe cien cuarenta y uno dólares con veintiseis centavos.

Se debe $141.26.*

I'm not sure about "clear the bill." You could say:

Necesita pagar la cuenta de $141.26. / You need to pay the bill of $141.26.

I am using the "usted" form (polite singular) for you. Also, if you are going to "write" this in Spanish, you probably want to use Spanish notation for money. I think the $ comes afterwards? And of course, commas and decimal points are reversed. 141,26$

I would be saying something like:
"you owe $141.26."
"$141.26 is owed."
"we need to clear this bill of $141.26"

Thanks for your help everyone!!!

Also:La cuenta es cuatro con cincuenta euros.The bill is 4 euros and 50 cents.

Wait a minute, I think I should have said:

La cuenta es cuatro euros con cincuenta centavos.

Or just:

La cuenta es cuatro (euros) con cinuenta.

Answer 8

Samdie is right. When you post a question, please give a bit of context.
You owe me?
I owe you?
he owes her?
They owe Him?
etc
etc
etc

Answer 9

Also:

La cuenta es cuatro con cincuenta euros.

The bill is 4 euros and 50 cents.

Answer 10

You need to provide some specific examples since it depends on who owes whom.
e.g. I owe you 5,000 pesetas = Te debo cinco mil pesetas.
you owe me 5,000 pesetas = Me debes 5.000 pesetas, etc.
Alternatively, you need to learn how to conjugate the verb ¨deber¨and about the use of pronouns.
