Well, the question is how to say "dollar" So, in Spanish is called "dòlar" Now, the currency in Colombia is "peso" but peso is not dólar. - farallon7, Mar 7, 2012

If you are referring to slang for money (like in American English, you could say green, frogskin, cash, moolah, bucks, etc), then in Spain Spanish they use "pasta"

My country uses the € (euro).
And in Britain they're still hanging on to their pound.

Ecuador uses the dollar, actually. I think your question is more: how many different currencies are there? Because only some places use the $ dollar.

Are you talking about a dollar or the paper currency other countries use? I think Zimbabwe has a 'dollar' but of course it is not equivalent to the worth of a US dollar.
