Looks okay, but also the format:
'two thousand one hundred eighty-five' rather than
'two thousand one hundred and eighty-five' is also acceptable.
An English teacher may object to either way though, but in practice and in normal conversation either way is okay imo.
or even 'twenty one hundred eighty five' has been used in certain circumstances. Or simply the format 'twenty one eighty five' has been used for dates for example. Youd say "nineteen seventy three", not "one thousand nine hundred and seventy three" for 1973 ... :biggrin:
As for true correctness, ???. Us Americans are kinda lazy with regard to using proper English. :tongue:
To me, it depends on how verbose you want to be. :greensml:
Hi,
I will go along with dropping the "and" in most cases.
And year dates are handled differently. And most of this
is personal preference or some sort of local usage. Go
with what feels right to you if it is understandable to all
"normal" users.
Regards,
Steve
Thanks, Z and Steve :thup:
Being European, I will go with British English ;-)
