Cash money Meaning in English
expression
ˈkæʃ/ /ˈməni
KASH MUH-nee
kˈæʃ/ /mˈʌni
KASH MUN-ee
Definition
Physical money such as bills and coins, not checks or cards. Sometimes used informally or for emphasis to mean real, tangible money (often in a slang way).
Usage & Nuances
Usually informal or slang, especially in US English. Used for emphasis ("cold, hard cash money"). Not the same as just 'cash'—adding 'money' makes it stronger or more street-sounding. Rare in formal writing.
