Currency
|
Dinar and dinars/dinara in Serbian Cyrillic: "ДИНАР" and "ДИНАРА"The dinar was the national currency for Yugoslavia and its republics at least for some time. The word dinar is derived from the Arabic dīnār, which was derived from the Greek dénarion from the Latin dēnārius. Dēnārius is derived from dēnī, which means 'containing ten' as it was worth 10 asses.
