1. Lebanese pound

   The pound or lira (Arabic: ليرة لبنانية līra Libnāniyya; French: livre libanaise; abbreviation: LL in Latin, ل.ل. in Arabic, historically also £L, ISO code: LBP) is the currency of Lebanon. It was formerly divided into 100 piastres (or qirsh in Arabic) but because of high inflation during the Lebanese Civil War (1975–1990) the use of subunits was discontinued. The plural form of lira, as used in relation to the currency, is either lirat (ليرات līrāt) or invariant, whilst there were four forms for qirsh: the dual qirshān (قرشان) used with number 2, the plural qurush (قروش) used with numbers 3–10, the accusative singular qirshan (قرشا) used with 11–99, and the genitive singular qirshi (قرش) used with multiples of 100. The number determines which plural form is used. Before World War II, the Arabic spelling of the subdivision was غرش (girsh). All of Lebanon's coins and banknotes are bilingual in Arabic and French. Since December 1997, the exchange rate has been fixed at LL 1,507.50 per US dollar. However, since the 2020 economic crisis in Lebanon exchange at this rate is generally unavailable, and an informal currency market has developed with much higher exchange rates.

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 غرش.
