More information:

The Lebanese pound (lira in Arabic or livre in French) is the currency unit of Lebanon. It is divided into 100 qirsh (Arabic or piastres (French) but inflation has eliminated the subdivisions. The plural form of lira, as used on the currency, is either lirat or the same, whilst there are four plural forms for qirsh: qirshan, qirush qirsha or the same. In both cases, the number determines which plural form is used. Note that before the Second World War, the Arabic spelling of the subdivision was(girsh). All of Lebanon's coins and banknotes are bilingual in Arabic and French.
