    Question Loan

    Hi teachers,

    Does this sentence sound odd? Is there better words to replace 'car loan.' I feel it is so unnatural.

    1. I bought a brand new car. I do have to pay for car loan monthly. (sometimes I know a word but I suddenly forget about it and never recall it anymore .)


    2. When people can't afford to pay his/her car loan and that car needs to be taken back to financier? Which adjective or verb is appropriate for this car?


    I hope teachers understand my poor English.

    In this case we say that the car has been 'repossessed'.

    If you borrowed the money from the bank, it could be called a 'bank loan' but I believe 'car loan' is also used.
