Bounty term

No that doesn't make sense. As such, nobody would ever say that sentence. Bounty is physical, like treasure or a feast. 1. A monetary reward for catching a criminal. 2. A sum paid by the state to encourage trade. 3. Something given or occurring in generous amounts.

It's not used this way in the context of your sentence. A better way to say it: "It was a just reward to receive an A grade considering how hard I studied".

That’s not the correct way to use bounty. It’s not synonymous with “reward,” it’s specifically referring to getting paid a specific amount for doing something, and usually that something is killing or kidnapping someone or something. So you’d say something like “There’s a $10000 bounty on Jack’s head” meaning that if you capture/kill him you will be paid $10000.

Ok no, but I'll get you there. What feels like the main one is bounty as in a lot of a good thing. This is pretty archaic but sometimes gets used if people are feeling like... well being archaic. More specifically it's to do with crops, "a bountiful harvest" is the main thing that comes to mind, although if you're foraging for berries then "nature's bounty" comes to mind The way it's mostly used, however, is technically as a reward... but a reward for like killing someone's. In movies set in the 1800's wild west, people would have wanted posters with a "bounty" on it, ie how much money you'll get for either killing or bringing the guy in. Bounty hunters show up in fiction a lot as people who make a living doing just that, although basically always in stories set in the past, in fantasy or in science fiction. Boba Fett from star wars is supposed to be a bounty hunter. In short your example doesn't work. I will say "it's rewarding to get an A on the test after studying hard" absolutely works, in this case referring to the nice feeling you get when you work hard and it pays off. Hope this helps

as an american english speaker, really the only time i hear "bounty" is in regards to a government reward for capturing a criminal. Or the adjective version, "bountiful" as in "it was a bountiful harvest" in a good crop-growing year. Your sentence would not be used, no. If i am correctly interpreting what you are trying to say, you would instead say, "my hard studying paid off, I got an A on the test!" Something that comes from hard work would not generally be considered a bounty.

A Bounty is a reward for capturing an outlaw ($500 Dead or Alive!). A person who tracks outlaws for the bounty is called a bounty hunter. Or if your pet is missing, you could offer a bounty (meaning cash) for its return. It doesn't mean reward in all contexts.

Bounty can be a reward, but its roots are in payment and riches, and has a second meaning of plentiful/abundance. "The cottage is filled with a bounty of fresh flowers" - an abundance of flowers "Some states offer a bounty for dead coyotes" - payment for providing proof of killing a nuisance animal "Autumn's bounty of fruits, seeds, and berries" - lots of these foods are available this time of year. Back to your example. You could say: "my report card has a bounty of A's from all my studying." Thus implying you have an abundance or a lot of A's from your hard work. "The bounty for hard work is an A." Thus implying hard work will result in an A. If you are using the reward version remember it's an exchange. And you can check it by replacing 'Bounty' with 'reward in exchange for.' (some exceptions apply, but this is in terms like bounty hunter.)

Bounty is a very specific word. There are instances where you can use it to mean “reward,” but it really depends on the situation. I would avoid using it, usually

A bounty is not an abstract notion like a reward is. One can say something is “bountiful” because it is large and lavish, as a pirate’s treasure would be. Meanwhile the saying, “a good deed is its own reward” explains why bounty and reward are not synonymous.

To be honest, the first thing I think when I hear Bounty is that it’s a name brand of paper towels.

I remember being told that army recruiters received a bounty for every person that they recruit. It's a payment made for getting something most often living. Britain offered a bounty on snakes in India at one stage. It backfired. In America, and I believe the Philippines. Bounty hunters are rewarded for catching people who jump bale.

it's a physical prize or reward, rather than an emotional or metaphorical one. "There is a $500 **bounty** for providing information leading to the identification of a criminal." "We have a **bounty** program to reward people who find bugs in our software."
