- Sent To move someone to a different team. (Example: The Nets sent Nic to the Bulls.)
- Got To receive something. (Example: They got Julius.)

When we see a dollar sign ($), we use the word million.
- $20 million = Twenty million dollars.

A2 Tip: In English, we don't say "a money of 20 million." We say:
- "A contract for $20 million."
