The Bigger Numbers

Posted by Ginny

1000 - chun ()

2000 - i chun (이천)

From 1000 - 9000, it’s the numeral plus thousand. For example, 3,000 = 3 () and 1000 (). For example, a number like 4,567 would be: 4 thousand (사천) 5 hundred (오백) 60 (육십) 7 ().

10,000 - man ()

20,000 - i man (이만)

Numbers 10,000  to 90,000 is formed by adding the numeral plus man (). For example, 30,000 is 3 () and man ().

100,000 - ship man (십만)

200,000 - iship man (이십만)

100,000 - 900,000 is formed much in the same way as the numbers above. 300,000 = (삼십만). 45,678 = (사만)(오천)(육백)(칠십)().

1,000,000 - bek man (백만)

What is 2,000,000? (Hint: it’s formed exactly as the other numbers were formed)

10,000,000 - chun man (천만)

100,000,000 - ok ()

Try a number like this: 234,567,890 by yourself.
