	Names of numbers in English - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		If a number is in the range 21 to 99, and the second digit is not zero, one should write the number as two words separated by a hyphen.
		Often, large numbers are written with (preferably non-breaking) half-spaces or thin spaces separating the thousands (and, sometimes, with normal spaces or apostrophes) instead of commas—to ensure that confusion is not caused in countries where a decimal comma is used.
		Numbers with a decimal point may be read as a cardinal number, then "and", then another cardinal number followed by an indication of the significance of the second cardinal number, or as a cardinal number, followed by "point", and then by the digits of the fractional part.

	US English Pronunciation of Proper Names (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Names can be of very diverse etymological origin and can surface in another language without undergoing the slow process of assimilation to the phonologic system of the new language.
		This site allows users to type in their names, and uses Edinburgh University's Festival to generate the phonetic transcription as well as an audio file according to (i) the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary, (ii) a baseline, ngram-based pronunciation model and (iii) a model incorporating language origin information.
		Of course there is the caveat that some people are very sensitive to mispronunciations of their names, and the level of tolerance to synthesis mistakes might be lower than if they were listening to another word.

	Names for Large Numbers
		The English names for large numbers are coined from the Latin names for small numbers n by adding the ending -illion suggested by the name "million." Thus billion and trillion are coined from the Latin prefixes bi- (n = 2) and tri- (n = 3), respectively.
		In the American system for naming large numbers, the name coined from the Latin number n applies to the number 10

		For most of them, you might try the method that I use for writing papers, and which I learned from my thesis adviser: assemble all the figures that you will use in it and put them in the order that you would use if you were going to explain to someone what they all meant.
		No matter how much you reflect and how many times you proof read it, there will be some things that could be improved.

	AUE: FAQ excerpt: "billion": a U.K. view
		Throughout the U.K., a common response to the question "What do you understand by 'a billion'?" would be: "Well, I mean a million million, but I often don't know what other people mean." Few schoolchildren are confident of the meaning, though, again, 10^12 seems to be preferred.

	ICANN \| ICANN - English
		The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is an internationally organized, non-profit corporation that has responsibility for Internet Protocol (IP) address space allocation, protocol identifier assignment, generic (gTLD) and country code (ccTLD) Top-Level Domain name system management, and root server system management functions.
		Because IP addresses (which are strings of numbers) are hard to remember, the DNS allows a familiar string of letters (the "domain name") to be used instead.
		With the deployment of IPv6, the new IP address numbering protocol, global network interoperability continues to be a primary mission for ICANN.
