for what it is worth... 16:40 Jul 19, 2010
There may be some "insider" words for amounts of money (probably drug related), but as far as I know there isn't any word like "grand" for a thousand. Typically, however, people will use "ye tomAn", "dah tomAn" when referring to "one million tomans" or "ten million tomAns".
If you heard this as an outsider on a conversation about real estate, you would wonder if the people were crazy, talking about "metri ye tomAn o nim"
If there are colloquialisms for amounts of money, it would be nice to hear from our colleagues. |
