词组 | billion |
释义 | billion Copperud 1970, Reader's Digest 1983, and others comment on the fact that in American English billion means "a thousand million" and in British English "a million million." Our latest British source, Longman 1984, says that the American sense of billion is increasingly being used in British English because it is standard both in American English and international scientific English. Longman does warn of the possibility of confusion in British English. |
