renminbi; Chinese yuan
The official currency of the People's Republic of China. 人民元 is the Japanese term; in Chinese it is 人民币 (rénmínbì).
Before my trip to China, I exchanged some money into renminbi.
The exchange rate of the Chinese yuan has been fluctuating recently.
I exchanged yen for renminbi at the airport.
The renminbi fell against the dollar.
Within China, it's common to pay in renminbi.
