RE: From tolar to dollar / Od tolaru k dolaru

in LeoFinancelast year

The word "dollar" has its origins in the German word "thaler," which was a shortened version of "Joachimsthaler". “Thal” means valley, and “thaler” indicates a person or thing from the valley.

Czech "Tolar" is derived from the German word. It is important to mention that during the era of the Holy Roman Empire, German was very popular in Czech.
