Hi, my dear friends!I have read on English Club's grammar, if we want to talk about 450,000 we should say:Four hundred and fifty thousand.Now, here is my question:Can we also say "Four fifty thousand"?If not, why?Thanks in advance,

Dear Bijan! In RK's comment "lack" means that he omited the word "hundred".

Dear RK! First, thank you for your nice comment. Second, what does "lac" mean? I searched for it in Cambridge Dictionary, but I could not find it. Third, because of you said that, you are using as below in your country, where are you from? I would like you to be my new friend, but I could not add you. I will be very happy, if you add me as your friend. Best wishes and thanks in advance,
450,000

Dear RK!

Dear Bijan! In American we usually say "four hundred fifty thousand". However, we often leave out the word HUNDRED speaking about 3 digit numbers: 450 - four fifty although it is incorrect. So, if you say "four fifty thousand" in America, you will be understood, but it is incorrect.
