  1. In the majority of English- and Arabic-speaking countries, the
    number 1429400000 (traditionally notated 1,429,400,000) would be
    read as “one billion, four hundred twenty-nine million, four
    hundred thousand”. This method of notation (wherein 1,000 is the
    base for numbers higher than 1,000,000) is referred to as the short
    scale.

    In most other European nations (and countries which were once
    the property of these nations), the number 1429400000 would be read
    – with some minor differences according to language, but
    essentially the same due to root origin – as “one milliard, four
    hundred twenty-nine million, four hundred thousand”. This method of
    notation (wherein 1,000,000 is the base for numbers higher than
    1,000,000) is referred to as the long scale.

    Many Asian countries use a traditional scale for smaller numbers
    (and occasionally larger numbers), but typically use some
    combination of Arabic and Asian notation. For example – the
    Japanese (which is derived from Chinese) use a base of 10,000. The
    traditional notation would read 14 2940 0000 – 14[oku], 2940[man].
    The full romanized number would read ju-yon oku, ni-sen kyuu-hyaku
    yon-ju man, wherein “oku” has a value of 100,000,000; “man” has a
    value of 10,000; “sen” has a value of 1,000; “hyaku” is 100 and
    “ju” is 10.
