Many languages have words expressing indefinite and fictitious numbers—inexact terms of indefinite size, used for comic effect, for exaggeration, as placeholder names, or when precision is unnecessary or undesirable. One technical term for such words is "non-numerical vague quantifier".
English has many words whose definition includes an indefinite quantity, such as "lots", "many", "several", and "some". These placeholders can and often do have a generally equivalent numeral counterpart, e.g., "a couple" meaning two (2) or "a few" meaning approximately 3 to 8. Other placeholders can quantify items by describing how many fit into something that could change based on size, e.g., "a handful" represents more peanuts than apples. Larger quantities can be described by "half-dozen" (six units), "dozen(s)" (twelve units per dozen), and less commonly "tens", or "scores" (twenty units per score). Still larger quantities are described as hundreds, thousands, millions, billions, etc.

On October 16, 1997 the doors of the zillion opened without the media hype that would later know the disco. Most visitors came from the province of Antwerp and the Netherlands. Striking at the disco was the immense technical infrastructure. After the rise of previous mega-nightclubs as Dockside (now Versuz) in Hasselt and Boccaccio (now Riva, formerly The Temple) in Heusden there were few new dance chain opened more and especially enjoyed smaller, specialized clubs great popularity. The Zillion filled this gap in the market perfectly, thanks a light show which completely rotated to the dance floor and 500 intelligent spots like moving heads and scans. In addition, to enhance the visual aspect, use of industrial robots, fireworks, confetti cannons and a dance floor that hydraulically could ...
Green gardens, cold Montreal
Crooked pictures that hang in the hall
It's the golden day, golden day, gold, you recall on cue
Oooh, it's old news.
When the world revolved around you, yeah
Faculty members agreed to a certain degree
And the girl that followed the rules, yeah
Looked good on paper, but lacked a central theme
The coffee could use more cream
Friends blow away, blow away, blow like a cloud
Kids go away, go away, go, it's allowed
And all of the days spent close to your crowd were few
To the girl that followed the rules, yeah
It looked good on paper, and gave it a college try
Now the ink and her humour is dry
Friends blow away, blow away, blow like a cloud
Kids go away, go away, go, it's allowed
And all of the days spent close to her crowd are through
Oooh, it's the truth
