I call out all cheaters the same, doesn't matter where they are from (for example Jack from Australia, Sun Yang from China or Paula Radcliffe from GB). Sorry that i don't want to be part of your cheap agenda where it is only allowed to criticize certain nations.

European women are having a bad time. Collectively, they have only won 3/33 medals so far while the men have 17/37

I assume you're thinking in Swedish numerals? English is different.

 

ENG million = SWE miljon

ENG billion = SWE miljard

ENG trillion = SWE biljon

There used to be the word 'milliard' in the past in Britain but they adopted the US system of saying billion for 'thousand million' in the 1970s. 

So not only has British English become so confusing due to many cultures' influence in the past but more recently to US customs as well.

Thank you so much for this information. This is so interesting
