The Chinese word 亿 means “one hundred million” in English. It is often used to describe large numbers or amounts, such as in financial or population statistics. For example, China’s population is over 1.4 billion, which can be written as “14亿” in Chinese. The word can also be used in a more figurative sense to describe something as being “countless” or “innumerable”.
