Are you in this forum for a holiday or for Reconnaissance?
ahh, I just spelt 7 wrong, I can speak numbers in german up to very high values, just cant spell any :D
I'm useless at spelling in other languages too. But then all my language teachers were scary (reckon they were in a cult or something) so I have an excuse.
BTW, about the numbers thing. I go for option 2
Treinta y dos mil setecientos sesenta y siete
And that, my friends, is why Spanish speakers talk so fast :)
Let's get it in as many languages as possible.

The answer:
Most programmers tend to say thirty-two seven sixty seven. While Thirty-two thousand, seven hundred and sixty seven is the correct way, the other way is the maximum value for a signed integer in C, C++ and Visual Basic (in Java, it is called "short"). As this number is used CONSTANTLY while determing how to declare a number, most programmers tend to say it that way.
This is, of course, my own theory...but I have asked people at work and family members this same question, and the programmers tend to say 32 7 67. Although, according to the poll, no one in Chit Chat is a programmer. :)
Any comments?
*bump
Amen! Oh...wait...you meant the numbers didn't you?..............nevermind:rolleyes:Quote:
