When expressing large numbers (more than one hundred) read in groups of hundreds. The order is as follows: billion, million, thousand, hundred. Notice that hundred, thousand, etc. is NOT followed by an ‘s’. Two hundred NOT two hundreds.在讀較大的數字（超過一百）時，可以整百整百地讀。順序如下：十億、百萬、千、百。注意，百、千等后面不用加-s。兩百（two hundred）不要讀作two hundreds。

NOTE: British English takes "and" between "hundred and ..." American English omits "and". In the examples below, this is represented by (AND).注意：英式英語在一百后面的數之前會加and，而美式英語則會省略。在下面的例子中，就有and的用法。
