@Andrzej I'm just saying 30 Baht is 30 Baht, whether you're in Thailand or the United States. Saying Bahts is like saying furnitures or broccolis. Sorry if I caused you offense. The point stands.

@Andrzej. But they ARE wrong grammatically. It's the same as Japanese Yen or South African Rand. You don't say Yens or Rands at a bank exchange counter. It’s not a big deal to me, but the NY Times prides itself on accuracy, and any future use of "Yens" will be called out too.
