For example: 1.05 is spoken as 1 point 5 1.005 and 1.0005 are spoken as 1 point and 5 10000000 is spoken as 1 million 100000000 is spoken as 1 0 and thousand thousand 1,000,000,000 is spoken as 1 thousand million 12345 is spoken as 1 2 thousand 3 hundred and 45 Note that with the commas, numbers up through 99,999,999 seem to be spoken correctly. However, there are a lot of instances where I find these numbers without the commas. Is there a way to change the way these numbers are spoken, or is this a bug?
