Note
An irregular plural that belongs only to the coin: a hundred bani make one Romanian leu. The other meanings of ban, such as a prohibition, a proclamation or a curse, never take this form, so bani always signals money. It sits after numbers and in prices, much as cents does, and a single coin is a ban, never a bani.
