Pronunciation and morphology notes

Ten million in Japanese is is-sen-man (1000 x 10,000 = 10,000,000). When 千 sits directly in front of man, oku or chō it normally takes 一, which is why 1,000 on its own is sen but 10 million is 一千万; the shorter 千万 sen-man is also heard. The next major unit, oku (100 million), is 10 x sen-man. For 11 million, the form is is-sen-hyaku-man (1100 ten-thousands). Japanese government statistics, corporate finance, and real-estate listings all use the man / oku system natively.
