Money order. or, Cashiers check.
I have to send money to Canada to replace my birth certificate, but nobody here at my school (they speak English very well) has any idea what this is. I have explained that it's a check you buy from the bank. You give them the exact money, and they give you a check for that amount in the currency desired. Blank stares.
Anyone? |

| Because they don't speak English at the bank, so I need to take a translation with me. Get it? |

Money order is "upyeon hwan" (can't write Korean on this comp)
Cashier's check is apparently "jagi-ap supyo."
But typing "money order" or "cashiers check" into the Naver dictionary could've told you that...  |

Thank you,
I can't read Korean, and the couple of times I've tried to use naver, I haven't been able to figure out which text is the one I want. |
