Yeah that's annoying. Have you ever dealt with someone from India that puts the commas in the wrong place? It's actually SUPER confusing. Like 6,53,71,418?
1,00,00,000 is a crore, 1,00,000 is a lakh. So where we'd say "sixty million" they'd say "six crore", where we'd say "three million" they'd say "thirty lakh".
So that number above, we'd say "sixty-five million, three hundred seventy-one thousand, four hundred and eighteen". They'd say "six crore, fifty-three lakh, seventy-one thousand, four hundred and eighteen".
