The currency redenomination debate has been live in Iranian economics for years. Government plans to chop zeros and rebrand the rial as the new toman come up periodically. Until that lands, every Iranian speaker carries a mental conversion table: rial to toman (divide by ten), toman to verbal short forms (drop the hezâr or the milyun depending on context). New residents and tourists routinely overpay or underpay because they miss the dropped zeros. Asking چند تومنه؟ (chand tomane?, "how many toman is it?") and getting "five" usually means panj hezâr toman, not panj toman. Confirm by repeating the full number back.
