用法筆記
Frequently used with a prepositional phrase introduced by 'of' that specifies the origin or purpose of the money (e.g., 'disbursal of scholarship funds', 'disbursal for repairs'). This noun is typical in formal financial, governmental, and institutional contexts rather than in everyday conversation about personal spending.
