Attempting to culture myself and learn Spanish this semester, perhaps take a semester abroad in Barcelona, eventually. I've got numbers down for the most part, but I'm a little confused when it comes to putting it all together with the bigger numbers. How would one say 4,315 or 72,206,124 in spanish?

cuatro mil trescientos y quince?

setentados millones doscientoseis mil cientoveinte y cuatro?

:confused::o

I'd leave out the "y" entirely. Trescientos quince.


setentados millones doscientoseis mil cientoveinte y cuatro?


"setenta-dos", is incorrect. The correct version is "setenta y dos", but when spoken it tends to come out like "setentidos".

Since you're in the US, I'd recommend learning Spanish in a country that's in this hemisphere. Just my opinion. ;)

I think learning Spanish is just an excuse ;)
