salary是指薪水的意思。
Salary，wage和pay这三个词都可以表示“工资”，但其含义不同。salary是指非体力劳动者所得到的“工资、薪水”，通常按月，有时按季或年计算（Salary is usually paid monthly,sometimes three months or a year,for a job,esp.as for workers of higher skill and rank）。
wage指简单劳动或体力劳动者所得的“工资、工钱”，通常按周、日等短期计算发给（Wages are paid weekly for a job,esp.as for labourers or workers.），常用复数形式；pay指不论工作性质如何，针对劳动所支付的报酬，它包含salary和wage（s）（pay is paid for a job），为不可数名词。
短语搭配：
monthly salary月薪
high salary高薪
final salary scheme最终薪金方案
base salary底薪；基本工资；基础工资
annual salary年薪。
