I’m doing a project on Ireland for French class (weird, I know) and this is one of those things that you can’t find in a dictionary. I need to know what the Irish pound (the currency) translates into in French. Thanks in advance!
We use the same currency as the French its called the euro. Before that we used the punt. It doesnt translate into other languages it would be called the punt in french too. We’ve has the euro since 2002.

Considering that the Irish use the Euro as do the French then I would say that the translation is in fact the same. Other than that look up Irish in french and then pound and add them together.

We use the euro now, so it’s the same in French. But if you really do want to know what "pound" is, it’s "livre". The same as the word for "book".
