Big Numbers

When we want to talk about big numbers, we use the following order:
1 2 3 9 4 3 8 3 1
Million Thousand Hundred

Every three digits we will say “hundred”.

831 = eight hundred and thirty-one.

We use “thousand and million” at the end.

943, 831 = nine hundred and forty-three thousand, eight hundred and thirty-one.

123, 943, 831


One hundred and twenty-three millions, nine hundred and forty-three thousand, eight hundred and thirty-one.
Note: It is important to divide the number in groups of three digits.
