Explanation
ถอนเงิน combines ถอน, “to pull or take something out,” with เงิน, “money.” The source can be introduced with จาก, as in ถอนเงินจากบัญชี, “withdraw money from an account.” A location can be marked with ที่, as in ถอนเงินที่ธนาคาร, “withdraw money at the bank.” An amount may follow directly, as in ถอนเงิน 5,000 บาท, “withdraw 5,000 baht.” It is a neutral, standard expression used in everyday conversation, banking instructions, and ATM interfaces. การถอนเงิน is the corresponding noun phrase meaning “a withdrawal” or “withdrawing money.”
Usage
Commonly used when withdrawing cash at an ATM or bank counter and when discussing the amount, location, fee, or limit for a withdrawal.
Caution
โอนเงิน means “transfer money” and refers to moving funds between accounts; it is not ถอนเงิน when no cash is taken out. The opposite action, depositing money, is ฝากเงิน.
