HeyRatFans Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 It's a contraction of Kilo which itself comes from Greek for thousand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oniq Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 I believe the K stands for thousand. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong loooolz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
u_diddy Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Someday, after you get out from under your rock, you may also hear the term 3G. It's essentially the same as K but the G stands for Grands or thousands (ie. 3G's is 3X1000=3000$) A C Note is a 100 dollar bill hence 5 C Notes is 500$.

xendrome Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 3G means 3000 as well.... Grand.... not 3X10^100.... and its "googol".... heeheheh I'm pretty sure... that "grand" is not an acceptable term for counting amounts, or numbers.. it is more of a slang term.

MindTrickz Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 ^ True. Grand is a American slang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brodel Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 ^ True. Grand is a American slang. Dunno where it originated from, but it's probably the same in most English speaking countries. I've heard the same term in the UK, Canada and Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
