GollumHow to say the number 92
gealbIn Hungary we don’t even have a separate name for 11 and 12, just 10 + 1 and 10 + 2. But at least we messed up the billions, it’s called ‘milliárd’ and the trillion is ‘billió’. We were so close to making it perfect.
shaked_coffeeItaly joins the club of messing up the billions 🙌
For us a billion is “un miliardo” and a trillion is “un bilione”
LemmchenI think that’s fairly normal in Europe, isn’t it? In Germany we have Million, Milliarde, Billion, Billiarde instead of million, billion, trillion and so on, too.
Yea, that shit confused me so damn many times before!
TipponI might be remembering this incorrectly, but a billion in Europe used to be a million million, and we would count in thousands of millions first, as opposed to a billion now being a thousand million.
I can’t remember whether a trillion was a million (old) billion, or whether it was a billion billion.
