What to say
One
We often say "a" instead of "one".
For example when we have the numbers 100 or
1
/
2
we say "A hundred" or "A half".
Fractions
Not all numbers are whole numbers, or just fractions (see above), they are a mixture of
both.
For example:
1
1
/
2
- "One and a half."
Decimals
When pronouncing decimals we use the word point to represent the dot. The numbers
following the dot are pronounced separately.

For example:

When you have the number 1.36 we say "One point three six."

Squared / Cubed / To the power of
Square numbers are written 2 = we say "Two squared" = 2 x 2 = Two squared equals four.
Cubed numbers are written 2 = We say "Two cubed" = 2 x 2 x 2 = Two cubed equals eight
You can also say "to the power of" - "Two to the power of two equals four." and "Two to
the power of three equals eight."
You can then have "to the power of" any number.
Two to the power of twelve = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 4096.
It's much easier to write 2 = 4096.

Interesting Numbers

~ 0 ~
What could possibly be interesting about nothing?
Try writing the numbers zero ( 0 ) through nine ( 9 ).

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Then write how many numbers you have counted:-

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Yes, ten numbers, without using the number 10.
You can put as many noughts in front of a number without changing the value of that
number:-
01, 002, 0003, 00004 ...
In English 10, 20, 30, through to 90 are 1 ten, 2 tens, 3 tens, etc.
Also there are a number of ways you can say 0 in English.
When we use it For example:-
0 = oh after a decimal point 9.02 = "Nine point oh two."
in bus or room numbers
Rooom 101 = "Room one oh one."
Bus 602 = "Bus six oh two."
in phone numbers 9130472 = "Nine one three oh four seven two."
in years 1906 = "Nineteen oh six."
0 = nought before a decimal point 0.06 = "Nought point oh six."
0 = zero in temperature -10C = "10 degrees below zero."
US English for the number 0 = "Zero"
0 = nil in football
Chelsea 2 Manchester United 0 = "Chelsea two Manchester
United nil."
0 = love in tennis 20 - 0 = "Twenty love."


~ 12 ~
The number 12 is often represented as a dozen and the number 6 as a half dozen.

For example:
12 eggs= "A dozen eggs."
6 eggs = "Half a dozen eggs."

7

~ 13 ~
A dozen is 12, but a baker's dozen is 13, because in the past bakers who were caught
shortchanging customers could be liable to severe punishment, so they used to add an extra
bread roll to make up the weight.

~ 100 ~
A century is 100. The roman numeral for 100 is C, for centum.
One hundred is the basis of percentages (literally "per hundred"). 100% is the full amount
of something.

~ 1 billion ~
When is a billion not a billion?
In British English billion traditionally means a million million = 1,000,000,000,000 = 10
12

In American English billion means a thousand million = 1,000,000,000 = 10
9

The American billion has become standard in technical and financial use.
However, to avoid confusion it is better to use the terms "thousand million" for 10
9
and
"million million" for 10
12
.
Milliard " is French for the number 10
9
. It is not used in American English but is
sometimes, but rarely, used in British English.
Letters as Numbers
~ k ~
The letter k is often used to denote a thousand. So, 1k = 1,000.
If you see a job advertised and it offers a salary of 12k it means 12,000.00.

~ m ~
The letter m is often used to denote a million. So, 1m = 1,000,000.
If you see a job advertised and it offers a salary of 12m, apply for it!

8

~ bn ~
The letters bn denote a billion. So, 1bn is usually 1,000,000,000 (see above).
If you see a job advertised and it offers a salary of 12bn, it's probably a missprint.
myriad
The word myriad used to mean 10,000. Nowadays it's used to refer to a
countless number or multitude of specified things.
For example: Earth hosts a myriad of animals.
