I know we don’t use ‘de’ with ‘thousands’:
• I think there are 2,000 people living Olivares. Creo que hay dos mil habitantes viviendo en Olivares. • Over 500,000 people live in the city centre. Más de quinientas mil personas viven en el centro. We do, however, use ‘de’ with ‘millón’: • There are 1,000,000 people living Jerez. Hay un millón ‘de’ habitantes viviendo en Jerez. • There are 8,000,000 people living London. Hay ocho millones ‘de’ habitantes viviendo en Londres. But if we have 'mil’ built into a number with 'millón', should we still use ‘de’? • I think there are 1,200,000 people living Jaen. Hay un millón doscientos mil habitantes viviendo en Jerez. Many thanks in advance. Last edited by AngelicaDeAlquezar; February 09, 2015 at 03:10 PM. Reason: Merged back-to-back posts |
