『商务词汇点滴【1】－in the red』

Explanation: A business with cash flow difficulties may ask its bank for an overdraft: their account at the bank is then in the red. So ‘in the red ‘ means the condition of showing loss.

Overdraft, 指透支。当企业的现金周转陷入困境时，他们可以向银行申请透支，这时该企业在银行的帐户就变成了红色，也就是我们常说的赤字。所以我们可以用“in the red”来表示一个企业遇到了财务困难，入不敷出。

请看例句：

1. While British bankers talk of being in the red because of the old practice of showing overdrawn accounts in red ink, Italians talk about being in the green.

2. The new company is in the red this years due to inexperienced management and many employees are hunting for another job now.
