What does RUPIAH mean in Scrabble?
noun
The basic unit of money in Indonesia, divided into one hundred sen.
The rupiah takes its name from the Indian rupee, which reached the islands through trade, and it became the national currency after Indonesia gained independence in the late 1940s. Notes and coins carry values in the thousands, so everyday prices look large to a visitor; the small sen subunit is now practically unused. The plural is normally the same as the singular.
