Afghanis
Afghan monetary units
Afghanis is a plural for people from Afghanistan, though Afghans is more standard in English: The Afghanis we met were incredibly hospitable.
Some consider this form less correct than Afghans, which serves for both the people and the currency. (Lowercase afghanis is the currency.)
