When I looked in the book the only one I saw was a 5 Milliarden. I never saw milliarde at all. Where should I look thanks.I mean to say the word Milliarde I understand your singular approach to it. |

No. Some countries use a different system than ours, where 1,000 billions equal 1 trillion. The U.S. is a "short scale" country.
"[trillion] = Either of the two numbers (see long and short scales for more detail):
1,000,000,000,000 (one million million; 10^{12}; SI prefix: tera-) for all short scale countries. 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 (one million million million; 10^{18}; SI prefix: exa-) for all long scale countries.
