How is 40000000000000000000 constructed?
40000000000000000000 → forty quintillion. The coefficient 40 uses a basic vocabulary form rather than a hundreds decomposition.
Which spelling details matter here?
English reads large numbers in three-digit groups. 40,000,000,000,000,000,000 reaches the quintillion group, so the group forty is followed by the scale name quintillion. Scale names stay singular inside exact number names. English writes forty quintillion without adding a plural s to the scale name. When a three-digit group is 000, English skips that group in the word form. This keeps forty quintillion shorter and easier to read.
How should these words be spaced?
American standalone spelling uses spaces between scale groups and hyphens in compound tens.
