Antonym for "put in"

[vernikr]

What is an antonym for "put in" in the meaning "I put money in my account"? How could I say something like "I put money out of my account" in the meaning "I withdraw money"?

Welcome to the forum.

The opposite of "I put money into my account" is "I took money out of my account".

Except , make it "take money out of my account" if you mean withdraw.

 

[Parla]

Oh, right, SRK. For some reason I was thinking of the "put" as past tense, so I used past for the second phrase as well.

Thanks everyone.

One more question arose. What's the difference between "put in" and "put into"? What is more appropriate for case of adding funds to account in electronic banking system?

 

[Keith Bradford]

In the best English, this should be "put into"; if the money is already in the account, there's no reason to put it anywhere.

However, in everyday speech people often say in for into, if this doesn't cause ambiguity.

How do you think, can I use "put into" and "take out" as names of a buttons in interface of client bank application?

 

[Keith Bradford]

I think in such a case you'd use the technical terms: DEPOSIT and WITHDRAWAL.

I think deposits and withdrawals would serve you better.
