Frequently asked questions

What is a Lakh?

A Lakh is 100,000 (one hundred thousand) — the first grouping step above Thousand in the Indian/Nepali numbering system.

What is a Crore?

A Crore is 10,000,000 (ten million) — equal to 100 Lakh.

What is an Arab?

An Arab is 1,000,000,000 (one billion) — equal to 100 Crore.

What is a Kharab?

A Kharab is 100,000,000,000 (one hundred billion) — equal to 100 Arab.

How many Crores are in one Billion?

One Billion equals 100 Crore, since a Billion (Western) and an Arab (Indian) are the same size — 1,000,000,000.

Does this support Nepali numbering?

Yes — it converts to both the Indian/Nepali system (Lakh, Crore, Arab, Kharab, Neel, Padma, Shankh) and the Western system (Million, Billion, Trillion) at the same time, so you never have to pick just one.

Can I get the amount in Devanagari script too?

Yes — alongside the English output, there's a Devanagari card showing both the number in Nepali numerals (०-९) and the full amount in Nepali words. Nepali number-words aren't just a translation of the English ones digit-by-digit — almost every number from 1 to 99 has its own distinct traditional word (21 is एक्काइस, not a composed "twenty-one") — so this uses a proper Nepali word table rather than reusing the English composition logic.

Can I type Nepali number words as input, like "ek hajar"?

Yes — you can type a romanized Nepali digit word (ek, dui, teen, char, panch, chha, saat, aath, or nau, for 1-9) followed by a unit like hajar (thousand) or saya/sai (hundred), e.g. "panch hajar" or "ek sai". Several common spelling variants are recognized for each word (teen/tin, char/chaar, panch/paanch, saya/sai, and so on). This works for single digit-word + unit combinations — a longer compound phrase like "char hajar panch saya" isn't supported.

Can I convert decimals?

Yes. Decimals can be read digit-by-digit ("Point Four Five Six") or, in Currency mode, as a subunit like Paisa ("Forty Five Paisa") — switch between the two with the decimal mode toggle.
