“Quid” is an informal word for one pound sterling. So, “ten quid” means £10 — just like “ten pounds”. But here’s the key: “quid” is uncountable. You never say “quids” — even when talking about large amounts. Correct: “Can I borrow twenty quid?” “This jacket cost me fifty quid.” Incorrect: “Can I borrow twenty quids?” ❌ Have you ever heard this word before? #johnsenglishpage #Englishtutor #ingleseperitaliani #inglesepertutti #inglesepertutteleetà #ingleseperadulti #ingleseperte | John's English P
