#46824 [Opn]: [FR] Translation Problem "Billion" -> "Milliard"

ID: 46824 Updated by: rquadling@php.net Reported By: danbrown@php.net Status: Open Bug Type: Translation problem Operating System: N/A PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billion and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_and_short_scales has a lot to say on this. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-12-10 15:44:28] danbrown@php.net Description: ------------ According to a user note posted (and removed) this morning: The french translation isn't correct in the note about the billon limit for the 32bits signed of an integer. In english, billion is 10^9, and in french we say "milliard". But the word "billion" in french exists, and it means a million of million : 10^6 * 10^6 = 10^12. And it's not the same at all ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46824&edit=1
