• Vertically the tables above show progression of units and horizantally the progression of tens. Above one hundred the progression continues as in English, but the conjunction 'and' (aur) is not necessary. Instead of saying 'ek sau aur tees' (one hundred and thirty) you will say 'ek sau tees'.
• The breaking of high numerals by commas reflect the three tier system like: 'hazaar' (thousand), 'laakh' (100 thousand = lac), karord (10 million = crore), arab (1000 million), rather than the multiples of thousands used in English. For example the number 35,250,475 will appear as: 
• 3,52,50,475 and will be spoken as 'tteen crore, baavan laakh, pachaas hazaar, char sau pachahttar'.
