[edit] Euro and Cent
Believe it or not, in English, euro and cent do not take an 's' in the plural, although this rule seems to be known only to certain government and financial institutions. Thus, "ten euro" or "five cent" are correct expressions, even though they do not contain an 's' as a marker of the plural. Euro and cent are like yen, which also does not take an 's' in the plural. See references below.

[edit] Response
- Well yes, but the reference makes it clear that they know it's a weird usage in English and they pretty much say go ahead and say euros and cents if it works better in a non-official capacity. I'd say stick to what works in everyday English, not what government documents require for some official purpose. 82.45.248.177 14:23, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
