Hi there,

We have explained you in the past that the ECB, in order to avoid dozens of ways to plural the word euro and cent, they dictated that the plural of euro is euro, and cent is cent. Within the eurozone (I am not from there though) people do say 10 euro, or 20cent ... they never add the 's'. Do not forget that the eurozone now have around 15 countries but it will expand to 27, with a few dozens of official languages. All those languages have a different way to say euro in plural, hence the decision of ECB to dictate that the plural of euro is euro.

I am from Japan, and the same things applies to Yen, the Japanese currency. You never say in either English or Japanese 100 yens, since the Bank of Japan dictated, for similar reasons, that the plural of yen is yen (and the plural of zen is zen, although people does not know that the yen does have cents called zen).

I hope this clarifies the situation. Miguel.mateo (talk) 16:24, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
