Frequently Asked Questions
How do I write a cheque amount in Nepali?
Enter the amount in the converter above. The Nepali words output is exactly what you write on a cheque. For example, Rs. 25,575 becomes "पच्चिस हजार पाँच सय पचहत्तर" which you write in the शब्दमा (in words) field of the cheque.
Why does Nepali have unique words for every number up to 100?
Unlike English where numbers like "twenty-one" are composed from parts, Nepali has a distinct word for each number from 1 to 99. For example, 21 is "एक्काइस" (not "बीस एक"). This is a feature of the Indo-Aryan language family and reflects the historical development of the Nepali counting system.
What is the difference between Lakh, Crore, and Arab?
The Nepali/South Asian numbering system groups numbers differently from the Western system. One Lakh (लाख) = 1,00,000 (100 thousand), One Crore (करोड) = 1,00,00,000 (10 million), One Arab (अर्ब) = 1,00,00,00,000 (1 billion), One Kharab (खरब) = 1,00,00,00,00,000 (100 billion).
