Owe, mang nghĩa “có” hay “chiếm hữu”. Trong một số phương ngữ tiếng Anh, từ này vẫn giữ ý nghĩa về quyền sở hữu, nhưng trong tiếng Anh chuẩn, ý nghĩa của từ đã được thay đổi từ “sở hữu” sang “có nghĩa vụ phải trả”; ví dụ: “Don’t forget the twenty dollars you owe me” [Đừng quên bạn nợ tôi 20 đô la].
