... another question for you.
After 30 days are over... After a period of 30 days is over...
It costs 100 dollars... Here is a 100 dollar bill...
500 hundreds is 50000 (fifty thousand). I don't think that is what you mean. I suspect you mean five hundred (5 hundreds): It costs five-thousand, five-hundred and twenty rupees/dollars. (It costs 5 thousand, 5 hundred and 20 rupees/dollars.) _________________ "Inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened."

I meant to say is :
(I think we should use like 5 thousand dollars or rupees but not 5 thousands/hundreds i mean it must be in singular like 5 thousand,5 hundred etc) not 5 dollar 5 dollars right.500 hundred is fifty thousand not fifty thousands,correct?.I am getting confusion here.
5 thousnad-not 5 thousnds 5 thousnad dollars or 5 dollars not 5 doller/rupee right.
Thanks. |

five thousand dollars five thousand rupees five dollars five rupees one dollar one rupee - the usual singular and plural rules apply.
500 hundred is fifty thousand. _________________ "Inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened."

I think that 'ask' can also be used here if you want to sound polite. |

Please explain where you would use 'ask'. It's not clear what 'here' refers to in your message.
If you mean 'Can you hear what he is asking?' then that is a change in meaning. It is no more polite than the original but it cannot be used unles 'he' is asking a question.
Similarly, if you mean 'Can you ask what he is saying?' that is another change which completely alters the original meaning. _________________ "Inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened."
