Trillion (short scale) (1,000,000,000,000; one million million; 1012; SI prefix: tera-), the current meaning in both American and British English
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trillion

ccccccccccccccccccc
Trylion – liczba o wartości: 1 000 000 000 000 000 000 = 1018, w krajach stosujących długą skalę.
W krajach stosujących krótką skalę (głównie kraje anglojęzyczne) trylion oznacza liczbę 1012, czyli bilion na długiej skali.

neutral  Crannmer: Czyli ile (po jakiemu)? Polski trylion ma tyle z amerykańskim trillion wspólnego, co polski bilion z amerykańskim billion. Czyli nic. // Pytanie było (najprawdopodobniej) o 10^12. W odpowiedzi dałeś w pierwotnej wersji bez dalszego komentarza 10^18.

  -> To jest brytyjski trillion. Trzeba jego porownać z polską liczbą. https://www.theguardian.com/notesandqueries/query/0,5753,-61...
