Note
English borrows the Swedish plural whole and does not add its own -s. The amount is counted in kronor, and the singular krona names one unit. It follows a number the way dollars or euros do. Eric Pfanner's “AOL Agrees to Buy Online Ad Broker for $900 Million” (2007) prices shares at “more than 230 kronor a share.” The -or ending is Swedish grammar: many feminine nouns in Swedish form their plural this way.
