Have a look at 3.
Yep. That's what it says. I'm wrong. I am compelled by german law to put my real name. But I'm not going to. So there. Please ask Mr. Mahmood to throw me off this list at once. Do I win 10 Euros?
^^^^^^ The plural is Euro, keep learning kid! :D
End of thread. *Please!*

Hey Sven, how many times have you heard you may be a little too anal retentive? Also, how do you figure 'A' Euro is singular, and 'Some' Euro is plural? If I said "I have some euro in my pocket", in english, that means I have one european dolar, thus 'Euros' *is* plural, since it's describing the use of two words together in *one* word, but this applies to the english language only AFAICT.
I was going to take you serious, but the fact that you think a euro is nothing but a european dollar, shows your horizon, don't take it personal, this is now really going off topic. Concerning your plural/singular rule, what about the word information? Yeah, I see plural always has a -s to it! ;) This goes to Dylan too. Think about it! Sven
