in our native Chinese system, the expression of counting is relatively complete. There are units such as one, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, and then one hundred thousand, one million, and ten million, which are expressed in decimal. I have to sigh the greatness of our ancestors and create Chinese so comprehensively. This makes it very simple for us to express counting in our daily life.

but in the English language system, this is different. You can consult an English dictionary, and the English system is also counted in groups of three, that is, in thousands. English expressions are: thousand, million, billion, trillion, and so on. When counting Arabic numerals, it is also a group of three. For example, to express the number 1, English-speaking countries will write: 1,, and when expressing the number 1,, they will write: 1,.

In the Internet industry, people from English-speaking countries account for a relatively large proportion compared with other industries. Therefore, in the Internet industry, it is easier than other industries to get popular with the number expression method of English system, which is expressed in ternary system. When the salary is less than 1 thousand, the expression of English system is the same as that of Chinese system, for example, 9 thousand will be expressed as 9 thousand. When it exceeds 1,, there is 1, in the Chinese system, but there is no unit of 1, in the English system, so we can only use the unit of 1,. So English will express 1 thousand, and English thousand is the word kilo, and taking the first letter will become 1 K.
