4 Some notes about numbers…
French uses a period, rather than a comma, to indicate thousands and millions. The word cent does not take a final –s when it is followed by the numbers 1-99 The number un is not used before the word mille to mean a/one thousand. It is used before million to say a/one million.

5 More notes about numbers…
Mille, unlike cent and million, never takes an –s Before a noun, million and millions are followed by de/d’. [Deux millions de personnes sont en vacances.] When writing out years, the word mille is usually shortened to mil.

6 Mathematical terms plus et plus minus moins moins multiplied by fois multiplié par divided by sur divisé par equals font égale informal formal
