Use Finnish names for currencies as recommended on https://kotoistus.fi/suositukset-valuutat-fi/

Thanks, Tuomas!

A question. Is it possible, that Finnish orthography prefers the original Polish letters in złoty, according to the Wikipedia: https://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puolan_z%C5%82oty?

tjhietala commented 6 years ago

Both "Puolan zloty" and "Puolan złoty" are apparently being used in Finnish, although the former seems much more common. Also, I'd consider kotoistus.fi (an expert group managed by the National Library of Finland) more authoritative source than Wikipedia, if that's what we're looking for.

Good question though. If there's a good argument for using the Polish letters I'd certainly consider that.

Thanks (in Hungarian orthographical rules, the original Latin letters are forced in this case, that is why I asked this).
