South Asian breakdown
123 = 1 hundred 23
Nepali uses lakh (1,00,000) and crore (1,00,00,000) instead of the western thousand→million→billion ladder.
Lakh and crore
The South Asian numbering system places commas at different intervals than the western one. Where English writes 1,234,567, Nepal writes 12,34,567 and reads it as बाह्र लाख चौँतीस हजार पाँच सय सतसट्ठी.
- १,००,००० = 1 lakh = 100,000 — एक लाख (ek lakh)
- १०,००,००० = 10 lakh = 1,000,000 — दस लाख (das lakh)
- १,००,००,००० = 1 crore = 10,000,000 — एक करोड (ek karod)
