thousand, K (thousand)
As a general rule, thousand should be expressed either in words or in numbers.
- Felicity received five thousand dollars as a graduation present from her grandparents.
- In his very first job, Patel was making $75,000 a year.
The capital letter K is sometimes used informally to represent one thousand (dollars), especially in newspaper headlines. There is no space between the numeral and the letter K, as in 75K.
- Headline: Lottery winner gets 150K
The letter K should not be used as an abbreviation for one thousand (dollars) in formal writing.
- The grant amounted to $150,000 (not 150K).
