Nope, Pali.
(A "lac" (also romanized as "lakh") is 100,000. Some of the people posting in these fora will also use "crore", 10,000,000, which is derived from Sanskrit.) |
Thank you so much for explaining, what i want to say is talk english how the hell is anyone to understand if i answer in my own language. Except of course some expats from Europe. |
"Lakh" and "crore" are English. Indian English, to be sure, but as has been said, English doesn't borrow words from other languages, it mugs them, drags them into dark alleys and rifles their pockets for vocabulary  |
