Between? That's odd. In Russian, it goes миллион (million, 10^6), миллиард (milliard, 10^9), триллион (trillion, 10^12), квадриллион (kvadrillion, 10^15), etc in 10^3 increments. "Биллион" isn't a word. It does exist in the macOS dictionary (I just checked) but I've never ever seen or heard it used.
- aix1 4y agoIn Russian, the word "биллион" is mainly of historic interest: https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%91%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%BB%D0%B8%D0%BE%D0%BD https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%91%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%BB%D0%B8... (see the note about "Арифметика" Магницкого.) Since Russia uses a short-scale system, the word is no longer in use. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_and_short_scales https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_and_short_scales
