One million

File:Million.png
A **million** is a number equal to 106 = 1,0002 = 1,000,000 = 1E6 = one followed by six zeroes (in both the short scale and the long scale). It is both a square number and cubic number. It is often used as hyperbole or exaggeration to represent an indefinitely large number. A million is one of the first numbers to be generally considered big by most people's standards. The name came from an Italian word "millione" which combined the Italian "mille" meaning one thousand with the augmentative suffix -one.
