-իլիոն

Armenian Etymology hy :bf միլիոն + 1 1, as if it contains hy մի one. Pronunciation իլյոն Suffix suffix -իլիոն -իլիօն -illion Usage notes The large numerals formed using native prefixes traditionally follow the long scale. 10⁹, short scale “billion”, is expressed as hy հազար միլիոն thousand million; 10¹⁵ as hy հազար երկիլիոն thousand trillion/billion; etc. Nowadays, however, they follow the short scale, serving as calques of the more common Russian-borrowed big numbers, or, in the diaspora, of whatever scale the host country uses.
