Introduction
======================================================================
Depending on context (e.g. language, culture, region), some large
numbers have names that allow for describing large quantities in a
textual form; not mathematical. For very large values, the text is
generally shorter than a decimal numeric representation although
longer than scientific notation.
Two naming scales for large numbers have been used in English and
other European languages since the early modern era: the long and
short scales. Most English variants use the short scale today, but the
long scale remains dominant in many non-English-speaking areas,
including continental Europe and Spanish-speaking countries in Latin
America. These naming procedures are based on taking the number 'n'
occurring in 103'n'+3 (short scale) or 106'n' (long scale) and
concatenating Latin roots for its units, tens, and hundreds place,
together with the suffix '-illion'.
Names of numbers above a trillion are rarely used in practice; such
large numbers have practical usage primarily in the scientific domain,
where powers of ten are expressed as '10' with a numeric superscript.
However, these somewhat rare names are considered acceptable for
approximate statements. For example, the statement "There are
approximately 7.1 octillion atoms in an adult human body" is
understood to be in short scale of the table below (and is only
accurate if referring to short scale rather than long scale).
The Indian numbering system uses the named numbers common between the
long and short scales up to ten thousand. For larger values, it
includes named numbers at each multiple of 100; including lakh (105)
and crore (107).
English also has words, such as 'zillion', that are used informally to
mean large but unspecified amounts.

Apart from 'million', the words in this list ending with -'illion' are
all derived by adding prefixes ('bi'-, 'tri'-, etc., derived from
Latin) to the stem -'illion'. 'Centillion' appears to be the highest
name ending in -"illion" that is included in these dictionaries.
'Trigintillion', often cited as a word in discussions of names of
large numbers, is not included in any of them, nor are any of the
names that can easily be created by extending the naming pattern
('unvigintillion', 'duovigintillion', 'duoquinquagintillion', etc.).

All of the dictionaries included 'googol' and 'googolplex', generally
crediting it to the Kasner and Newman book and to Kasner's nephew (see
below). None include any higher names in the googol family
(googolduplex, etc.). The 'Oxford English Dictionary' comments that
'googol' and 'googolplex' are "not in formal mathematical use".
Usage of names of large numbers
======================================================================
Some names of large numbers, such as 'million', 'billion', and
'trillion', have real referents in human experience, and are
encountered in many contexts, particularly in finance and economics.
At times, the names of large numbers have been forced into common
usage as a result of hyperinflation. The highest numerical value
banknote ever printed was a note for 1 sextillion pengő (1021 or 1
milliard bilpengő as printed) printed in Hungary in 1946. In 2009,
Zimbabwe printed a 100 trillion (1014) Zimbabwean dollar note, which
at the time of printing was worth about US$30. In global economics,
the name of a significantly larger number was used in 2024, when the
Russian news outlet RBK stated that the sum of legal claims against
Google in Russia totalled 2 undecillion (2) rubles, or US $20
decillion (US $2); a value worth more than all financial assets in the
world combined. A Kremlin spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, stated that
this value was symbolic.
Names of larger numbers, however, have a tenuous, artificial
existence, rarely found outside definitions, lists, and discussions of
how large numbers are named. Even well-established names like
'sextillion' are rarely used, since in the context of science,
including astronomy, where such large numbers often occur, they are
nearly always written using scientific notation. In this notation,
powers of ten are expressed as '10' with a numeric superscript, e.g.
"The X-ray emission of the radio galaxy is ." When a number such as
1045 needs to be referred to in words, it is simply read out as "ten
to the forty-fifth" or "ten to the forty-five". This is easier to say
and less ambiguous than "quattuordecillion", which means something
different in the long scale and the short scale.
When a number represents a quantity rather than a count, SI prefixes
can be used--thus "femtosecond", not "one quadrillionth of a
second"--although often powers of ten are used instead of some of the
very high and very low prefixes. In some cases, specialized units are
used, such as the astronomer's parsec and light year or the particle
physicist's barn.
Nevertheless, large numbers have an intellectual fascination and are
of mathematical interest, and giving them names is one way people try
to conceptualize and understand them.
One of the earliest examples of this is 'The Sand Reckoner', in which
Archimedes gave a system for naming large numbers. To do this, he
called the numbers up to a myriad myriad (108) "first numbers" and
called 108 itself the "unit of the second numbers". Multiples of this
unit then became the second numbers, up to this unit taken a myriad
myriad times, 108·108=1016. This became the "unit of the third
numbers", whose multiples were the third numbers, and so on.
Archimedes continued naming numbers in this way up to a myriad myriad
times the unit of the 108-th numbers, i.e. and embedded this
construction within another copy of itself to produce names for
numbers up to Archimedes then estimated the number of grains of sand
that would be required to fill the known universe, and found that it
was no more than "one thousand myriad of the eighth numbers" (1063).
Since then, many others have engaged in the pursuit of conceptualizing
and naming numbers that have no existence outside the imagination. One
motivation for such a pursuit is that attributed to the inventor of
the word 'googol', who was certain that any finite number "had to have
a name". Another possible motivation is competition between students
in computer programming courses, where a common exercise is that of
writing a program to output numbers in the form of English words.
Most names proposed for large numbers belong to systematic schemes
which are extensible. Thus, many names for large numbers are simply
the result of following a naming system to its logical conclusion--or
extending it further.
Origins of the "standard dictionary numbers"
======================================================================
The words 'bymillion' and 'trimillion' were first recorded in 1475 in
a manuscript of Jehan Adam. Subsequently, Nicolas Chuquet wrote a book
'Triparty en la science des nombres' which was not published during
Chuquet's lifetime. However, most of it was copied by Estienne de La
Roche for a portion of his 1520 book, 'L'arismetique'. Chuquet's book
contains a passage in which he shows a large number marked off into
groups of six digits, with the comment:
Ou qui veult le premier point peult signiffier million Le second point
byllion Le tiers point tryllion Le quart quadrillion Le cinqe quyllion
Le sixe sixlion Le sept.e septyllion Le huyte ottyllion Le neufe
nonyllion et ainsi des ault's se plus oultre on vouloit preceder
(Or if you prefer the first mark can signify million, the second mark
byllion, the third mark tryllion, the fourth quadrillion, the fifth
quyillion, the sixth sixlion, the seventh septyllion, the eighth
ottyllion, the ninth nonyllion and so on with others as far as you
wish to go).
Adam and Chuquet used the long scale of powers of a million; that is,
Adam's 'bymillion' (Chuquet's 'byllion') denoted 1012, and Adam's
'trimillion' (Chuquet's 'tryllion') denoted 1018.
The googol family
======================================================================
The names 'googol' and 'googolplex' were invented by Edward Kasner's
nephew Milton Sirotta and introduced in Kasner and Newman's 1940 book
'Mathematics and the Imagination' in the following passage:
width=200 | Value Name Authority
10100 Googol Kasner and Newman, dictionaries (see above)
10googol = 10 Googolplex Kasner and Newman, dictionaries (see
above)
John Horton Conway and Richard K. Guy have suggested that 'N-plex' be
used as a name for 10N. This gives rise to the name 'googolplexplex'
for 10googolplex = 10{{sup|10}}. Conway and Guy have proposed that
'N-minex' be used as a name for 10−N, giving rise to the name
'googolminex' for the reciprocal of a googolplex, which is written as
10. None of these names are in wide use.
The names 'googol' and 'googolplex' inspired the name of the Internet
company Google and its corporate headquarters, the Googleplex,
respectively.
Extensions of the standard dictionary numbers
======================================================================
This section illustrates several systems for naming large numbers, and
shows how they can be extended past 'vigintillion'.
Traditional British usage assigned new names for each power of one
million (the long scale): ; ; ; and so on. It was adapted from French
usage, and is similar to the system that was documented or invented by
Chuquet.
Traditional American usage (which was also adapted from French usage
but at a later date), Canadian, and modern British usage assign new
names for each power of one thousand (the short scale). Thus, a
'billion' is 1000 × 10002 = 109; a 'trillion' is 1000 × 10003 = 1012;
and so forth. Due to its dominance in the financial world (and by the
US dollar), this was adopted for official United Nations documents.
Traditional French usage has varied; in 1948, France, which had
originally popularized the short scale worldwide, reverted to the long
scale.
The term 'milliard' is unambiguous and always means 109. It is seldom
seen in American usage and rarely in British usage, but frequently in
continental European usage. The term is sometimes attributed to French
mathematician Jacques Peletier du Mans (for this reason, the long
scale is also known as the 'Chuquet-Peletier' system), but the Oxford
English Dictionary states that the term derives from post-Classical
Latin term 'milliartum', which became 'milliare' and then 'milliart'
and finally our modern term.
Concerning names ending in -illiard for numbers 106'n'+3, 'milliard'
is certainly in widespread use in languages other than English, but
the degree of actual use of the larger terms is questionable. The
terms "milliardo" in Italian, "Milliarde" in German, "miljard" in
Dutch, "milyar" in Turkish, and "миллиард," milliard (transliterated)
in Russian, are standard usage when discussing financial topics.
The naming procedure for large numbers is based on taking the number
'n' occurring in 103'n'+3 (short scale) or 106'n' (long scale) and
concatenating Latin roots for its units, tens, and hundreds place,
together with the suffix '-illion'. In this way, numbers up to
103·999+3 = 103000 (short scale) or 106·999 = 105994 (long scale) may
be named. The choice of roots and the concatenation procedure is that
of the standard dictionary numbers if 'n' is 9 or smaller. For larger
'n' (between 10 and 999), prefixes can be constructed based on a
system described by Conway and Guy. Today, sexdecillion and
novemdecillion are standard dictionary numbers and, using the same
reasoning as Conway and Guy did for the numbers up to nonillion, could
probably be used to form acceptable prefixes. The Conway-Guy system
for forming prefixes:
Units Tens Hundreds
1 Un N Deci NX Centi
2 Duo MS Viginti N Ducenti
3 Tre NS Triginta NS Trecenti
4 Quattuor NS Quadraginta NS Quadringenti
5 Quin NS Quinquaginta NS Quingenti
6 Se N Sexaginta N Sescenti
7 Septe N Septuaginta N Septingenti
8 Octo MX Octoginta MX Octingenti
9 Nove Nonaginta Nongenti
The Conway-Guy system disagrees with some standard dictionary names,
like "quindecillion," "sexdecillion," and "novemdecillion." Oliver
Miakinen argued that since "quindecillion" is a widely accepted term,
and the Latin for 15 is actually 'quindecim' and not 'quinquadecim',
the prefix "quinqua-" should be replaced with "quin-". This new prefix
is more commonly used nowadays.
Since the system of using Latin prefixes will become ambiguous for
numbers with exponents of a size which the Romans rarely counted to,
like 106,000,258, Conway and Guy co-devised with Allan Wechsler the
following set of consistent conventions that permit, in principle, the
extension of this system indefinitely to provide English short-scale
names for any integer whatsoever. The name of a number 103'n'+3, where
'n' is greater than or equal to 1000, is formed by concatenating the
names of the numbers of the form 103'm'+3, where 'm' represents each
group of comma-separated digits of 'n', with each but the last
"-illion" trimmed to "-illi-", or, in the case of 'm' = 0, either
"-nilli-" or "-nillion". For example, 103,000,012, the 1,000,003rd
"-illion" number, equals one "millinillitrillion"; 1033,002,010,111,
the 11,000,670,036th "-illion" number, equals one
"undecillinilliseptuagintasescentillisestrigintillion"; and
1029,629,629,633, the 9,876,543,210th "-illion" number, equals one
"nonilliseseptuagintaoctingentillitresquadragintaquingentillideciducentillion".
The following table shows number names generated by the system
described by Conway and Guy for the short and long scales.
