What are a strong yen and a weak yen?

Bank of Japan (Tell me! Nichigin)

Claims Supported by This Source

  1. A strong yen is when one unit of yen can be exchanged for a relatively large number of units of another currency; a weak yen is when it can be exchanged for a small number.
  2. Example: If you exchange 10,000 yen, you get $100 if $1 = 100 yen, $125 if $1 = 80 yen (strong yen), or $80 if $1 = 125 yen (weak yen).
