B1 numeral #2,000 よく出る 10分で読める

میلیارد

The number equivalent to one thousand million; a billion.

milyard 上位2,000

At the A1 level, learners are introduced to basic numbers from 1 to 100. The word میلیارد (milyārd) is generally considered too advanced for absolute beginners, as they are focusing on everyday survival vocabulary like buying bread or telling time. However, it is useful to recognize the word if you hear it on the news. At this stage, simply knowing that 'milyārd' means a very large number (a billion) is sufficient. You do not need to worry about the complex math or currency conversions yet. Just focus on recognizing the sound 'mil-yārd' and associating it with a huge quantity, like the population of the world or a massive amount of money. Practice saying it slowly: mil-yārd. It sounds a bit like the English word 'milliard', which makes it easier to remember for some European language speakers. Keep your focus on smaller numbers first, like ten (dah), hundred (sad), and thousand (hezār).

As an A2 learner, you are starting to handle more complex transactions and understanding broader topics. You should now know how to count up to a million (میلیون). The word میلیارد (milyārd) is the next logical step. You will encounter this word when reading simple news headlines about the economy or population. At this level, you should learn the basic grammatical rule: when you use 'milyārd' with a noun, the noun stays singular. For example, 'do milyārd nafar' (two billion people). You should also start to understand that in Iran, prices for big things like houses or cars are in billions of Tomans. If someone says a car is 'yek milyārd', they mean one billion Tomans. Practice writing the number with its nine zeros: ۱,۰۰۰,۰۰۰,۰۰۰. Try to read simple sentences that contain this word and understand the general context, even if you don't know every other word in the sentence.

At the B1 level, میلیارد (milyārd) becomes an active part of your vocabulary. You are expected to understand and participate in conversations about current events, the economy, and general statistics. You should be comfortable reading and saying complex numbers that include billions, millions, and thousands. For example, reading 1,500,000,000 as 'yek milyārd o pān-sad milyun'. You must fully grasp the difference between Rials and Tomans at this stage, as misunderstanding 'milyārd' in a financial context can lead to major confusion. You should also be able to use the plural form 'milyārd-hā' (billions of) to express indefinite, massive quantities in a descriptive or exaggerated way. Practice listening to Persian news broadcasts (like BBC Persian or Iran International) and try to catch the numbers they mention regarding budgets, exports, or populations. Your pronunciation of the word should be clear and natural.

As a B2 learner, your use of میلیارد (milyārd) should be fluent and automatic. You can read complex financial reports, understand fast-paced news segments, and discuss macroeconomic concepts in Persian. You are comfortable with the syntax of large numbers and never make the mistake of pluralizing the noun that follows them. You understand the nuances of when to use exact figures versus approximations like 'chand milyārd' (several billion). You can also comfortably navigate conversations about real estate or corporate finance where 'milyārd' is the standard unit of measurement. At this level, you should be able to seamlessly switch between Rials and Tomans in your head when hearing a figure in billions, depending on the formality of the context. You can use idiomatic expressions or hyperbole involving 'milyārd' naturally in casual conversations.

میلیارد 30秒で

Means 'billion' (1,000,000,000).
Noun following it must be singular.
Often implies 'Tomans' in daily life.
Plural form 'میلیاردها' means 'billions of'.

The Persian word میلیارد (milyārd) translates directly to 'billion' in English, representing the number 1,000,000,000. It is a fundamental numerical term used in everyday Persian, especially in contexts involving economics, population statistics, government budgets, and astronomy. Understanding how to use this word is crucial for anyone looking to achieve fluency in Persian, as large numbers frequently appear in news broadcasts, financial reports, and demographic discussions.

Mathematical Value: One thousand million (10^9). In Persian, it follows the short scale system, similar to modern English, despite its phonetic similarity to the long scale 'milliard'.

جمعیت جهان بیش از هشت میلیارد نفر است.

In the context of the Iranian economy, the term میلیارد is incredibly common due to the valuation of the local currency, the Rial (and Toman). Because of inflation, everyday transactions might involve millions, but national budgets, corporate valuations, and real estate prices are almost exclusively discussed in billions or trillions. Therefore, mastering this word is not just a mathematical exercise but a practical necessity for navigating Iranian society.

Currency Context: When Iranians say 'yek milyārd', they usually mean one billion Tomans, not Rials, unless specified otherwise in formal contexts.

قیمت این خانه دو میلیارد تومان است.

Beyond economics, the word is used in scientific contexts. For example, the age of the Earth or the universe is expressed in billions of years. The structure of the word remains invariable; it does not take plural markers when preceded by a number, which is a standard rule for Persian numerals. You say 'do milyārd' (two billion), not 'do milyārd-hā'.

Grammar Rule: Numerals in Persian do not pluralize the noun that follows them, nor do they pluralize themselves when acting as a specific quantity.

زمین حدود چهار و نیم میلیارد سال عمر دارد.

However, when expressing an indefinite, massive quantity, the plural form میلیاردها (milyārd-hā) can be used, translating to 'billions of'. This is often used rhetorically to emphasize a vast, uncountable amount.

میلیاردها ستاره در کهکشان وجود دارد.

The etymology of the word traces back to the French 'milliard', which was adopted into Persian during the Qajar era when French was the dominant European language of diplomacy and education in Iran. This historical borrowing explains why Persian uses 'milyārd' instead of an Arabic-derived term or a native Persian compound for this specific large number.

دولت یک میلیارد دلار بودجه اختصاص داد.

In summary, 'milyārd' is an indispensable vocabulary item for intermediate and advanced Persian learners. Its usage spans across daily financial transactions, news consumption, and scientific discussions. By mastering its pronunciation, grammatical rules, and contextual nuances, learners can significantly improve their comprehension of authentic Persian materials and engage more confidently in conversations involving large quantities.

Using the word میلیارد (milyārd) correctly in Persian requires an understanding of both its grammatical properties and its cultural context, particularly regarding currency. As a numeral, it follows the standard rules for numbers in Persian syntax. The most important rule to remember is that nouns following a specific number remain in the singular form. Therefore, when you say 'five billion people', the word for people (نفر or آدم) must be singular.

Syntax Position: The number precedes the noun it modifies. [Number] + [Classifier/Unit] + [Noun].

پنج میلیارد نفر در این قاره زندگی می کنند.

When dealing with money, the usage becomes slightly more complex due to the dual currency system in Iran (Rial and Toman). In formal writing, news, and official documents, amounts are stated in Rials. However, in spoken Persian and everyday commerce, Tomans are used. One Toman equals ten Rials. Therefore, when someone says 'yek milyārd', you must infer the currency from the context. If you are buying a house, it is definitely Tomans.

Spoken vs Written: In spoken Persian, 'milyārd' almost exclusively implies Tomans unless 'Rial' is explicitly stated.

هزینه پروژه ده میلیارد ریال برآورد شد.

Another common usage is in the plural form میلیاردها (milyārd-hā), which translates to 'billions'. This is used when the exact number is unknown or irrelevant, and the speaker wants to emphasize a massive quantity. In this case, the noun that follows can be pluralized, although it is not strictly necessary depending on the noun type.

Indefinite Plural: Use 'milyārd-hā' to mean 'billions of'. This acts as a quantifier of magnitude rather than a precise count.

آنها میلیاردها دلار ضرر کردند.

When combining 'milyārd' with other numbers to form complex figures, the conjunction 'و' (va, often pronounced 'o' in spoken Persian) is used to connect the different magnitudes. For example, 1,500,000,000 is read as 'yek milyārd o pān-sad milyun'. The order is always from the largest magnitude to the smallest, exactly as in English.

درآمد شرکت دو میلیارد و سیصد میلیون بود.

In scientific writing, you might encounter abbreviations or specific formatting, but the word is still read as 'milyārd'. For learners, practicing reading large numbers aloud is highly recommended, as the stringing together of 'milyārd', 'milyun', 'hezār', and hundreds can be a tongue twister initially. Start with simple billions and gradually add millions and thousands to build fluency.

فاصله تا آن ستاره چند میلیارد کیلومتر است.

The word میلیارد (milyārd) is ubiquitous in modern Persian, permeating various aspects of daily life, media, and professional environments. For a language learner, knowing where and how this word appears provides valuable context for improving listening comprehension and reading skills. The most prominent domain where you will encounter 'milyārd' is undoubtedly the news media, specifically in economic and political reporting.

News Broadcasts: Used daily in reports concerning the national budget, oil revenues, foreign trade, and inflation.

صادرات غیرنفتی به چهل میلیارد دلار رسید.

Another common setting is the real estate market. Due to the economic conditions in Iran, property prices in major cities like Tehran are astronomically high when expressed in the local currency. A modest apartment can easily cost several billion Tomans. Therefore, conversations with real estate agents (بنگاهی) or browsing property listings will constantly expose you to this word.

Real Estate: Essential vocabulary for buying, selling, or renting property in Iran.

ارزش این زمین بیش از ده میلیارد است.

You will also hear 'milyārd' in scientific documentaries, educational programs, and academic lectures. Whether discussing the age of the universe, the number of cells in the human body, or global population statistics, 'milyārd' is the standard term. In these contexts, the pronunciation is usually more formal and articulated clearly compared to fast-paced street conversations.

Science & Education: Used to quantify vast distances, long timeframes, and large populations.

مغز انسان دارای میلیاردها سلول عصبی است.

In everyday colloquial conversations, people might use 'milyārd' hyperbolically to express a large amount of something, similar to how English speakers say 'I have a billion things to do'. This figurative use adds color to the language and shows a native-like command of exaggeration.

من هزار میلیارد بار به تو گفتم این کار را نکن!

Finally, in the realm of technology and social media, metrics such as video views, website traffic, and follower counts for global celebrities or viral content are often discussed in millions and billions. As internet culture becomes increasingly globalized, Persian speakers frequently translate these massive digital metrics using 'milyārd'.

این ویدیو بیش از یک میلیارد بازدید داشت.

When learning to use the word میلیارد (milyārd), students often make several predictable errors, primarily stemming from direct translation from their native languages or confusion regarding Persian numerical grammar. The most frequent mistake is pluralizing the noun that follows the number. In English, we say 'two billion dollars', pluralizing 'dollar'. In Persian, the noun must remain singular: 'do milyārd dolār', not 'do milyārd dolār-hā'.

Pluralization Error: Adding the plural suffix 'ها' (hā) or 'ان' (ān) to nouns following a specific number.

Incorrect: سه میلیارد ماشین‌ها. Correct: سه میلیارد ماشین.

Another common pitfall is confusion between the short scale and long scale naming systems. Because 'milyārd' sounds exactly like the French/British long-scale 'milliard' (which traditionally meant a thousand million, while 'billion' meant a million million), some European learners might get confused about its actual value. In modern Persian, 'milyārd' strictly means 10^9 (one thousand million), equivalent to the US/modern English 'billion'.

Scale Confusion: Assuming 'milyārd' means a million million (10^12). The Persian word for 10^12 is تریلیون (trilyun).

جمعیت چین بیش از یک میلیارد است.

Pronunciation errors also occur. The word is pronounced 'mil-yārd'. Some learners might slur the syllables or mispronounce the 'yā' sound, making it sound like 'mil-ard' or 'milyon'. Paying attention to the distinct 'yā' and the final 'rd' consonant cluster is important for clear communication, especially in noisy environments like bazaars or over the phone.

Pronunciation: Ensure the 'y' sound is clearly articulated: mil-YĀRD.

بودجه سالانه چند میلیارد است؟

A critical cultural and practical mistake is ignoring the Rial vs. Toman distinction. If a vendor says a car costs 'yek milyārd', and you assume it's Rials, you are underestimating the price by a factor of ten. In almost all informal and semi-formal buying/selling contexts, 'milyārd' implies Tomans. Failing to clarify this can lead to severe misunderstandings in financial transactions.

منظورتان یک میلیارد تومان است یا ریال؟

Lastly, learners sometimes struggle with reading long numbers written in digits. Persian uses a comma or a slight space to separate thousands, just like English (e.g., ۱,۰۰۰,۰۰۰,۰۰۰). When reading these aloud, remember to connect the blocks of numbers with 'و' (va/o). Missing the connector makes the number sound disjointed and unnatural to a native speaker's ear.

یک میلیارد و دویست میلیون.

To fully grasp the usage of میلیارد (milyārd), it is helpful to compare it with other large numerical terms in Persian. The Persian numbering system for large quantities is heavily borrowed from French, which makes it somewhat familiar to European language speakers, but the exact values must be memorized to avoid confusion. The most immediate neighbors on the number scale are میلیون (milyun) and تریلیون (trilyun).

میلیون (Milyun): Meaning 'million' (1,000,000). This is one thousand times smaller than a milyārd.

یک میلیارد برابر با هزار میلیون است.

Moving up the scale, we have تریلیون (trilyun), which translates to 'trillion' (1,000,000,000,000). While 'milyārd' is common in daily life due to real estate and national budgets, 'trilyun' is mostly reserved for macroeconomic discussions, global GDPs, or astronomical figures. It is rarely used in everyday personal finance.

تریلیون (Trilyun): Meaning 'trillion' (10^12). One thousand times larger than a milyārd.

بدهی ملی چند تریلیون دلار است، نه چند میلیارد.

Another term worth noting is هزار (hezār), meaning 'thousand'. While much smaller, it is the building block for expressing numbers between millions and billions. For instance, instead of saying 'half a billion', Persians might say 'pānsad milyun' (five hundred million). Understanding how 'hezār' interacts with 'milyun' and 'milyārd' is key to fluid counting.

هزار (Hezār): Meaning 'thousand' (1,000). The foundational multiplier in the Persian number system.

هزار میلیون می شود یک میلیارد.

Sometimes, in very informal slang, people might use abbreviations or substitute words for large amounts of money, similar to 'grand' or 'bucks' in English. However, for 'milyārd', the word itself is usually stated, though the 'Toman' part is dropped. You might hear 'yek mil' used ambiguously for million, but 'milyārd' is usually pronounced fully to avoid costly misunderstandings.

قیمتش دو میلیارد است.

In conclusion, placing 'milyārd' accurately within the hierarchy of Persian numbers (hezār -> milyun -> milyārd -> trilyun) will solidify your understanding and ensure you can comprehend and articulate exact figures, whether you are reading a scientific article or negotiating a major purchase in Iran.

よくある質問

10 問

It means billion (1,000,000,000). Although it sounds like the long-scale 'milliard', in modern Persian it is equivalent to the short-scale 'billion'.

No. In Persian, nouns following a specific number always remain singular. Say 'do milyārd nafar' (two billion people), not 'nafar-hā'.

میلیون (milyun) is one million (6 zeros). میلیارد (milyārd) is one billion (9 zeros). A milyārd is a thousand times larger than a milyun.

You add the plural suffix 'ها' (hā) to the word: میلیاردها ستاره (milyārd-hā setāre).

In everyday conversation in Iran, it almost certainly means one billion Tomans. In official government documents, it might be Rials, but context usually makes it clear.

It is pronounced mil-yārd. Stress is on the second syllable. Make sure to pronounce the 'y' clearly.

No, it is a loanword from French ('milliard'). Persian adopted many administrative and scientific terms from French in the 19th and 20th centuries.

You say یک و نیم میلیارد (yek o nim milyārd) or یک میلیارد و پانصد میلیون (yek milyārd o pān-sad milyun).

A 'milyārder' is a billionaire. However, because it usually refers to Tomans, an Iranian 'milyārder' might only have the equivalent of tens of thousands of US dollars, not a billion US dollars.

Absolutely. It is used for population (هشت میلیارد نفر), age of the earth (چهار میلیارد سال), and anything else that requires counting to a billion.
