    Hundo
    Open up your wallet and you'd expect to find ones, tens, twenties, maybe even a Hundo. The last thing you'd ever expect is a Tom also known as a $2 bill.


    0:21 Introduction of "Hundo"

    Hello guys today on the Vocab Man, we cover a very short word
    and actually it is a hundo. And what do I mean by that? Well, it's basically
    another way of saying hundred

    you know, 50 people, a hundred people, a couple hundred people I'm going to be honest with you. When I came across a hundo, it just cracked me up. I mean, I just had to laugh. I mean, this in a positive way, I just had so much fun and I really liked that word.

    0:56 You just told your spouse instead of making 78 K a year, being this executive, Gary V fucking told you that you can garage sale and make a Hundo like they're scared. Rightfully so. Cause it's hard to get to 78 K in garage sale and Amazon, you got to get good.
    So usually on the Vocab Man, we cover very practical expressions so that you can use them in daily life. Well, with this word, it's a little bit different, I guess, because this is rather American slang and you probably won't use it in daily life because it's not common in other countries. I guess, people might not understand, I guess, but even so I thought this might be interesting for you. Well, it's just that I am having a lot of fun to hear that slangy word.
    What I want to say is the focus today lies rather on understanding the expression "hundo" than on using the word for yourself. .

    Just so, you know, there will be a transcript available. You can find them in my show notes. So let's have a closer look at the audio clip.

    2:12 What does K stand for?

    So what does the K stand for? 78 K So actually it stands for the K is $1,000 or alternatively a kilo dollar. It's a shorthand way of writing large numbers by using metric prefixes, just like a kilogram or kilometer similarly, but strictly speaking , it's not actually a proper use of the system since a dollar isn't a scientific unit of measure.
    So a shorter explanation would be the K stands for an informal English expression, which is used to represent the number 1000.

    3:11 Outro
    You are listening to the Vocab Man, I am Daniel from Switzerland. I am an English learner and hopefully you will stick with me and learn with me because learning together is more fun. And who knows, maybe we will make it to episode hundo one day. Bye.
