A quick definition of currency:

Definition: Currency is a type of money that a country uses. It helps people buy and sell things. Each country has its own currency, like the U.S. dollar or the Euro. Currencies are given a special code, like USD or EUR. The government controls the currency and makes sure it is used correctly. Sometimes, countries use a different country's currency instead of their own.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Currency is a system of money used by people in a country to carry out monetary exchanges. It is issued by the government and is a unit of account and a store of value. Currency is used in the commercial and trade sector to buy and sell goods and services. Each currency is a means of payment within a specific area. Currencies can also be traded between nations in foreign exchange markets.

Examples: Some common currencies used today are the U.S. dollar, the euro, the Indian rupee, the Japanese yen, and the British pound sterling. Each currency is assigned a three-letter code under the ISO 4217 Standard, such as EUR for euro, GBP for pounds sterling, USD for U.S. dollars, and JPY for yen.

The central bank of each country has the power to circulate the currency throughout its territory. For example, the Federal Reserve is the central bank of the United States. In some cases, a currency is used by a group of countries, such as the euro, which is issued by the European Central Bank (ECB). Some countries have even adopted a foreign currency, like the U.S. dollar, which is used in countries like Panama, Ecuador, and El Salvador. The euro is also used in countries outside the European Union, such as Monaco and Andorra.

Explanation: Currency is a system of money used by people in a country to buy and sell goods and services. The examples illustrate how different countries have their own currencies, which are assigned a three-letter code. The central bank of each country has the power to circulate the currency, and some countries even use a foreign currency. Overall, currency is an essential part of the global economy and allows for monetary exchanges to take place.
