Definitions and meaning of million

million

Etymology

From Old French, from Italian milione (“million”, from mille (“thousand”, from Latin mille) +‎ -one). Compare -illion.

Pronunciation

  • enPR: mĭl′yən, IPA(key): /ˈmɪljən/, [ˈmɪʎən]
  • Hyphenation: mil‧lion
  • Rhymes: -ɪljən

Numeral

million (plural millions)

  1. (long and short scales) The cardinal number 1,000,000: 106; a thousand thousand.
  2. (colloquial, hyperbolic) An unspecified very large number.

Usage notes

Until the early 20th century, million behaved much like an ordinary quantificational noun (such as pair or handful). That is, it inflected in the plural when modified by a numeral greater than 1, and was separated from the noun it quantified with of, as in: five millions of pounds (rather than the modern equivalent, five million pounds).
