Hi,
The numbers1 to 9 in Chinese are 一 二 三 四 五 六 七 八 九 The number 10: 十， the number 100: 百， and 1000: 千 In Chinese there is a special character for the number 10,000: 万 There is no special character for 1,000,000 It is written as 100*10,000 一百万 The biggest number which can be written using one character (as I am aware of) is for 100,000,000: 亿 So 1,950,500,000 would be 十九亿 五千零五百万
klaus lautet:
The biggest number in Chinese would be 九千万亿 = 9,000,000,000,000,000 = 9x10^15 |
