Hello Capsuleer,  
i’m back and i have a suggestion about “the money”;

**Introduction:**  
As a native French player i am enjoyed by the semi-french trad, it make the game easier to understand.  
but as i know from Warcraft i hope that CCP won’t make everything in French,  
i think it’ll destroy the meaning of the game and divide players due to lack of mutual comprehension.

**So** for now i use “French but important names in English”, ”popup in french” and “put important name in highlight”.

**Then,** when in the market i found this:

[500 000 = 500,00 milliers =\> 500m ?!](https://i.ibb.co/6JFFn8Fk/Screen-Shot-03-20-26-at-01-16-PM.png)

[39 900 000 = 39,30 millions =\> 39.9m ?!](https://i.ibb.co/n85ztTSD/Screen-Shot-03-20-26-at-01-16-PM-001.png)

[1 500 000 000 = 1,5 milliards =\> 1.5m ?!](https://i.ibb.co/gLW9y9kb/Screen-Shot-03-20-26-at-12-56-PM.png)

_I know that it’s 500_\*\*(??)\*\*_, 39.9M and 1.5B;_

**BUT** this sort of misunderstanding could lead to errors/scam/etc..  
We are not “in Earth”, all capsuleers are in New Eden and use the same ISK metrics for trading and live their adventures and businesses.  
We need the same basics because trading is also “a language”, no matter where we from “in real life”.

_Thnks for reading me, feel free to elaborate the subject,_  
i think it’s a bit important for make the game more “fluid” for beginners,  
and more accurate for the business.  
**(and i am only talking about “inside New Eden” deh)**

So what are you suggesting? Can’t you just count the zeroes like everyone else?
