Description Jack 2019-11-01 17:23:49 UTC 
https://phabricator.kde.org/D25029 made some improvements of the conversion of currency amounts to text, but it was pointed out in a comment that the changes are very English centric, and numbers are put in text very differently in other languages.  

It would be good to allow language specific conversion, but I assume this would require first some framework for selecting the language, to make it easier to add additional languages.

In addition, I wonder if this might be something that could be handled by one of the KDE frameworks, so it could be selected as part of the locale.  I suspect that would be an even further future possibility.

I'm not sure if this might be related to bug 255492 (KMyMomney's currency system should be ported to use KDE currency support)

Allow scripting of translation of numerals

Not all languages have numerals like English, so current English-centric
numeral rules do not fit everywhere. This allows scriptig of numeral
translations for more flexibility.
