Usage notes

  • This abbreviation is not inflected as it is used instead of 1000. specifically to indicate nominative singular. This is necessary to avoid double dots in the end of a sentence, or if there is a possibility of confusion:
    Hän oli 1000:s jonossa.He was 1000th in the line.
    Hän oli 1000. jonossa.He was in the 1000th line.
    Hän oli jonossa 1000:s.He was 1000th in the line.
    Hän oli jonossa 1000.He was in the line number 1000.
