Plain English translations of the accountancy terms that crop up in your letters, returns and conversations.

Why I built this
I built this jargon translator because accounting letters, tax returns and HMRC correspondence are full of words that mean nothing outside the profession. Below you will find plain English explanations for the accounting and tax terms that come up most often.
Missing a term?
There’s no such thing as a silly question here. If there’s a word or phrase you’ve come across and can’t make sense of, tell me what it is and I’ll add it to the list. New translations go up every Tuesday.
