Numbers

[Sc4ever]

大家好！！

 

 

I'd like to know if I wrote this numbers correctly, I cannot check on the answer key because... the book came with none ( )

 

so, here they are:

 

 

61,290 = 六萬一千三百九十。

 

935.807 = 九十三萬五千八百零七。

 

35.610.750 = 三千五百六十一萬零七百五十（零）。

 

447.090.000 = 四意四千七百零九万零零零零。

 

5.380.280.200.000 = 五意三千八十零万三千零零零零零。

 

 

谢谢

You've got a mistake in the first one at least... I stopped reading at this point, it's pretty rare to get numbers this big written out in Chinese characters. 

[Hofmann]

1,0000,0000 is 億, not 意.

1,0000,0000,0000 is 兆.

Kill all your 零s at the end.

You wrote 五意三千八十零万三千, which doesn't make sense because you don't have any 0 between 千 and 十...

[Publius]

61,290 = 六万一千二百九十

 

935,807 = 九十三万五千八百零七

 

35,610,750 = 三千五百六十一万零七百五十

 

447,090,000 = 四亿四千七百零九万

 

5,380,280,200,000 = 五兆(万)三千八百零二亿八千零二十万

 

You can use either 万、亿 or 萬、億, but don't try and mix them together. Since your 谢谢 is simplified, I changed all your 萬 to 万.

兆 is poorly defined and seldom used except in technical world where it means mega- 百万. When counting mundane things like money I personally would use 万亿/萬億 to avoid confusion.

Thank you very much!!  Publius, I'm learning mandarin from a book from Taiwan (that's why the "numbers" are written on the traditional way, so I changed them into simplified with google translator and it got a little messed up)
