@ttlearner I see. The rate at which it's discounted. You can say "the discount rate is ___%", but you can't say "at a discount rate." It's correct to say "at a discounted rate."

at a discount rate VS at a discounted rate ? (2024)

@ttlearner I see. The rate at which it's discounted. You can say "the discount rate is ___%", but you can't say "at a discount rate." It's correct to say "at a discounted rate."

The correct one is "at a discounted rate.' You can also say "I got it at a discount"

@reederemmalee 「We need a minimum order of (number) units so that we can deliver the product at the current discount rate」 does it sound unnatural?

@ttlearner change "discount" to "discounted"

@reederemmalee thank you and I looked it up, and there's a word, a discount rate, how is it different and can be used?

@ttlearner "A discount rate" sounds wrong to me. The rate is discounted. Discount is not an adj.

@ttlearner I see. The rate at which it's discounted. You can say "the discount rate is ___%", but you can't say "at a discount rate." It's correct to say "at a discounted rate."

@reederemmalee ah thank you!!
