      A million, million, millions... as in:
      1, 000,000, 000,000, 000,000 or 10^18
      ...from tri as in three.
      It is lazily commonly missused for a [million] millions, which is in fact a [billion], from bi as in two (...and not a [thousand] [million]).
      You see, a [tricycle] does not have two wheels and a [bicycle] does not have one and a half wheels.

        Sorry, the above definition is a little off. Actually, make that [999] billion off. A trillion is ten to the [TWELFTH] power (1,000,000,000,000). Ten to the ninth power is [one billion].
