"Ten dollars"

Translation: 십 달러

[tehjuneee]

It's also very common to say "십 불" instead. At least if you're Korean in America.

[phashaline]

Are the sino korean numbers used for dollars? I have no idea

[Haddy994224]

For all money.

[KanKanMikan]

wonder when we gonna learn the Korean money instead of dollar

[Andrew590503]

The Korean currency is 원 (won) and it is counted in increments of either hundreds or thousands; for example, 천원 (1000 won) is one US dollar. South Koreans only have equivalent one dollar bills, ten dollar bills, and fifty dollar bills.

[Shlomo_]

Does the item (dollars in this case) come after the number because it's a Sino-Korean number, or because it's "dollars" specifically?

[tessabanessa]

I think it's just because it's money. Won is the same way.

[Rick367223]

I'm having trouble with the difference between "dollar" and "different". I think it's the vowel in the second syllable that's getting me. When is it ㅓ and when is it ㅏ?

[mhin1]

달러 = "dollar"

다르다 = "to be different"

• casual: 달라
• formal: 다릅니다
