In the UK, it �s a till. A cash machine is the �hole in the wall � where you take out money from your bank.

In South Africa we also call it a "cash register", some people also refer to it as a "till".

I learned both �cash register � and �till � (actually, the last one we use in dutch slang as well). I agree with Lindsey, also for me �cash machine � would be the machine that allows you to withdraw money from your bank account, the ATM. |
