Definition
加元 is the common abbreviation for the Canadian dollar (加拿大元). It functions as a noun naming a currency unit, not as a classifier — the source POS tag 'q' (measure word) does not match its actual usage. You'll see it in exchange rates, prices, and financial contexts.
noun
Canadian dollar (the official currency of Canada)
