你要理解一个问题,在数字表达的时候,中国采用,0000;万,是受中国传统文化影响,像“万岁”“万寿无疆”,因此都是4位进制的,你要仔细发现就会看到在财务计数中采用3位进制,这是受到英美文化的影响,再比如在国际度量单位中,都是thousand进位的,而英美采用,000,表示thousand,在上一位是million,在上一位billion,在上一位trillion 等等吧,这些已经足够你用了。至于哪一个多,哪一个少你自己一看就明白了。

A million is 1,000,000. A thousand is 1,000. So a million is much more than a thousand.
