A: These two are ok:
"I pay in cash"
OR
"I pay by card"

All of the other options sound very unnatural to me.
For these two, the difference is only in what I use (card or cash) to pay. The action (paying) is the same.

When I use cash to pay I say "I pay in cash" (or "I pay with cash" is also ok!)
And when I use a card to pay I say "I pay by card"

In English, speakers usually use set expressions. So even though "I pay by cash" might seem ok, it will sound awkward to English speakers, just because people always say it the other way! :)

A: Hi ! The first two sentences are perfect.

"Happy pay day! Is anyone treating themselves?"

OR

"Happy pay day! Will anyone treat themselves?" (this might sound more natural using 'will' if they have only JUST been paid. Using future tense in this situation would be more natural. But, the first sentence is still useable if you prefer!)

I hope this helps! 😊

A: "Pay it forward" means to do a good deed for someone else since someone has done one for you.

For example, imagine that you are at the store and you realize as you're paying that you are short on change. The person behind you pays for the rest of your purchase. You tell him/her that you will get some money from your car to pay them back but they say, "Don't worry about it, just pay it forward."
They're asking you to help someone else out in the future when you see the opportunity just like they did for you. It doesn't have to be with money but this could be a common example.

A: “Buy/bought” is usually used when you purchase something and pay all the money for it at once.

“Pay off” is used when you buy something but still owe some money for it. If you want to buy a car for $20,000, you might pay $5,000 now, then pay $1,000 each month for 15 months until it is 100% “paid off.”

This means that I invite you and am going to pay for your drink/food/ticket etc. "It's my treat." = "I'm paying."
