"Billion" 的美式英語和英式英語有何分別?

Billion may mean:

1,000,000,000 (one thousand million 10^9), used by most English-speaking countries (American and usual modern British meaning)

1,000,000,000,000 (one million million 10^12), used by most other countries outside Asia (older British meaning)

Billion

美式 - 十億 = 1,000,000,000
英式 - 萬億 = 1,000,000,000,000
叫我寫張支票就真考起! (齊頭數還可以)

美國: 十億
英國: 萬億
