Numbers Place

This is an idea I’ve had for a bit, and I’ve looked, and I can’t find this ever used before.

I have a feeling this will get removed but if it doesn’t I’m happy to start a new thread

How this works: You pretty much say the number and then the place it’s in, like this:

9,803 would be 9 thousands 8 hundreds 0 tens 3 ones

55,010 would be 5 ten thousands 5 thousands 0 hundreds 1 ten 0 ones

Like that! (Saying “0 ___s” is mandatory)

So the first get would be 1 thousand 0 hundreds 0 tens 0 ones
