Banknote issuers' native names - should be on separate lines.

Who else agrees with me that banknote issuers' native names should be on separate lines?

In the case of Finland, the Bank of Finland's native names are in Finnish & Swedish - which should be on 2 separate lines.

The Bank of France requires a separate line titled ‘Banque de France’.

I'd love that idea, but there's one small problem, which is that you don't seem to know that Zimbabwe has 16 official languages, and South Africa has 11 official languages. That will take a lot of space. And we shouldn't even talk about India with its 447 regional languages …

Official English names were applicable … you will have the local names on the lettering.

The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe only uses its name in English.

The South African Reserve Bank mainly used its names in Afrikaans & English.

As for the Reserve Bank of India, only Hindi & English are used, as they are the main languages in India.

Not since the end of apartheid:

English-Afrikaans-siSwati

English-Setswana-Southern Ndebele

English-Xhosa-Venda

English-Northern Sotho-Tsonga

English-Zulu-Sesotho

I know that - but English & Afrikaans are still 2 linking languages in South Africa though - especially between people who speak different native languages.

I was referring to the notes prior to the 1999 issue - which are inscribed in Afrikaans & English.

This would use excessive ammount of space.

This would use excessive ammount of space.

Not for when there are 2 or 3 languages on a banknote for the issuing bank's name.
