UPDATE: I forgot one big number expression! You can say: "13k" "40k" "200k" and this means "13, 000" "40, 000" "200, 000." This is most common in writing (especially about money), but it's occasionally used in speaking. 😁👍For example: "I can't believe that he spent 10k on a ring for his girlfriend and then she broke up with him!"

Hi Vanessa, as second language speaker, I like this topic so much. I’ve been struggling with numbers while speaking and listening. You bring different situations together, that’s easy for us to practice, thank you

[ajulialelis]

Thank you for your class! Saying numbers in general has always been one of my biggests difficulties as an English student. This class was very helpful! (:

I really loved this lesson, Vanessa, ❤. Saying big numbers in English can be a little tricky and confusing oftentimes, I can tell you this from experience because I've seen native speakers use different ways to do so, especially numbers over one million or generally in millions. But I guess I finally became satisfied with clear Vanessa's explanation of this video's topic. Thanks so much for helping me out with this essential topic, Vanessa. I appreciate anything you've done for me 😊🌹.

Hey Vanessa, I'm looking forward to your unmissable lesson! Btw, can I ask you if you accept any requests/suggestions for videos? In that case I think it'd be great if you talked about compound words, which are so common in english. In particularly I personally would be interested in understanding when it's acceptable to create new compound words without altering the meaning of the single terms, like they often do in songs (for instance fullmoon instead of full moon). Is it just poetic license or is it grammatically correct/acceptable? If you judge this topic as worthy of focus I'll be most glad to listen to your exposition on it. My best wishes to you and your wonderful family!

Look at this dedicated teacher !!! The test at the end is great 👍🏻
