Prices

When we write, the currency sign goes before the number: $l, €2

When we speak, the number goes before the currency: one dollar, two euros

There is more than one way to say some prices: $2.50: two dollars, fifty cents / two dollars fifty / two fifty; £4.95: four pounds ninety-five pence / four pounds ninety-five / four ninety-five

Other examples:

£495.00: Four hundred and ninety-five pounds, €2,000.00: two thousand euros,

$lm: one million dollars NOT one million of dollars, £5m: five million pounds, €10bn: ten billion euros

In emails, we often write the currency code: 50 USD: 50 US dollars, 25 ZAD: 25 South African rand
