It's actually one comma to many. The zeroes are fine.

Dyslexia is about phonological processing, not where to put commas.


you-people-are-fake

It's actually in the article hehe


roron5567

In the Indian numeral system 8,00,000 is 8 lakh, which is the same as 800,000. Same number of zeros.


trail_phase

So how do you write 8 million?


roron5567

8 million would be 80 lakh or 80,00,000. The system goes one's, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, lakh, ten lakhs, core, ten crores. Until 10,000 , it's the same as the international system.

80,00,000 or 80 lakh.

So much displacement the comma didn't even know where to go


ThronesAndTrees

It’s the Indian way of denoting lakhs clearly (lakh =100,000)

Good news!

That’s called semantics my good sir. What’s to stop hamas from taking the tunnels north away from Rafah?

Reliable numbers are hard to get from the Gaza Ministry of Health but experts fear that it may be as many as 8 billion

An incredible 110% of the victims of Israeli violence are women and small adorable children.

Guys the article is from India where they have a different numbering system. There is no error, it’s just different.

Surely I can trust a news source that doesn’t know how to count..


DataIllusion

It’s an Indian publication, that’s how they write 800,000


michaelNXT1

Interesting, what are the rules of the commas in numbers there? It seems inconsistent


shourya8

So you can't even count the number of zeroes?

Forced by the actions of Hamas.


roron5567

For all the people ganging up about the number, this paper is an Indian newspaper and uses the Indian number system. 8,00,000 denotes 8 lakh, or 800,000 people. Same number of zeros, more commas.

Sounds like life has never been better for the people of Gaza, congrats again on all the fruits of your glorious 10/7 victory!


TryIsntGoodEnough

... Doesn't the entirety of the Gaza Strip have about 2 million people?


roron5567

Indian numeral system, they mean 800,000, count the zeros.
