Written correctly, it should be "Bt1,000-banknotes worth Bt1.5 million". It is one one of those cases where a hyphen makes a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunPer Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 In Danish we would say that "someone got red ears", but seem like that expression is not valid in English language, but someone may still get red ears, when realizing that someone forgot the ATM-container with 1.5m baht next to the machine...
