What does Cheque really mean?

Sure, let me explain to you what "cheque" means. A cheque is a piece of paper that has a specific amount of money written on it, which is drawn from a bank account. So, when you write a cheque to someone, you are basically allowing them to go to the bank and get the amount of money that you wrote on the cheque. It's like a little note that tells the bank to give someone money on your behalf.

Imagine a cheque as a little promise note. Let's say you owe your friend some money, but you don't have the cash right now. So, you write them a cheque for the amount you owe. It's like telling the bank, "Hey, my friend needs this amount of money, so can you give it to them please?" And when your friend takes the cheque to the bank, the bank gives them the money. So, a cheque is like a special paper that helps exchange money between people in a safe and secure way.

I hope that makes sense to you!
