Frequently Asked Questions
Which locales are supported?
Twelve locales: US, UK, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, Hindi (India), Japanese, Chinese, and Arabic (Egypt).
What is compact notation?
A shortened form of large numbers. Short style renders 1,200,000 as 1.2M, while long style renders it as 1.2 million, following each locale’s conventions.
Why does 1.234 look different in German?
Germany uses a period for thousands and a comma for decimals, so 1.234 means one thousand two hundred thirty-four. The tool applies each locale’s real rules.
Can I format without decimals?
Yes. Set decimals to 0 and the number rounds to whole units in every variant.
