How do you pronounce "4001"?

[RBrownBass]

Four thousand and one. I'm English, so I use the 'and'.

Would any americans say fourty-hundred and one? The way some of you guys don't talk in thousands intruiges me - 'Ten hundred dollars', etc.

Never heard anyone use "ten hundred dollars" instead of a thousand. It would be like using "5 feet 12 inches" instead of just "6 feet."

This.

LiamR, people here (well, those I hear) don't say "ten hundred", because "thousand" is there and easier. But we do say "eleven hundred" for 1100 or "twenty-five hundred" for 2500 or "seventeen fifty" for 1750 (and for $17.50). Makes sense if you consider that "thousand" is only two syllables.

On topic: four thousand one.

I say " four thousand and one", because I'm Irish, and do not understand why Americans would drop the "and"...it's so quaint!!

My sixth-grade math teacher would yell at us every time we said and without meaning a decimal. Therefore, we could not say "four thousand and one" in her classroom.

Luckily, sixth-grade is long gone, (maybe not, I'm in ninth grade) and I can now call it whatever the heck I please. (I refer to it as the Rickenbacker. People know what I'm talking about )

I usually say a Rickenbacker bass, and almost everyone gets the idea. If they don't, i say four thousand and one.

Four thousand and one. I guess in Canada we are more like our British isle brethren than our rebelling counterparts to the south. Cheers.

fawdouzin wun. I'm from brooklyn, ny.

I've always said it in my head like "Four-oh-one" and I'm not sure why. I've suprisingly never had to use it in conversation.

That's 401.

 

[Kopfjaeger]

Vier tausend und ein. I'm German.

 

[VitalSigns]

Wow, some of you guys went un-nessasarily in depth with this...

 

[treekiller]

Forty Oh One. It's a midwestern thing. Most everybody here knows what a 4020 is(and it's pronounced Forty-Twenty!!!).
