Some of us on the marketing and USmarketing teams are having a
discussion on usage and I thought that perhaps someone on the
documentation team could help us.
1. Use of "Euro". It was pointed out that the European Community had
issued its verdict saying that "Euro" should not be pluralized (i.e.
"Euros") in any situation. So, should we then standardize our use of
"Euro" to this for all documentation, website and marketing materials?
The question holds its answer: yes just because it is the *standard*
There was also a discussion, with no decision about the treatment of the
word "Euro". Would we write: 50 000 euro or 50 000 Euro or should we
rather write Euro 50 000 or euro 50 000 or EU50 000?
It depends.
I'd write either 50.000 Euro (for plain text, as stated in 1.) or EUR
50.000 (banking standard)
The decimal separator here is the froggies' one
2. The setting of the the thousand separator and the decimal point.
There seems to be multiple acceptable usages. For example all of the
following seem to be correct:
50 000.05
50,000.05
EN
50.000,05
FR
50 000.05
50.000,05
FR again
Just my two (Euro-)cents
