very nice question, i ask the same sometimes ago, nobody could answer. i didn't ask colours, i asked what was atom, molecules, universe, how would we say 4,100, 000,000,500 naira in nigerian languages. nobody answered. now if anybody can give the right answer to 4,100,000,000,500 naira in your dialect (nigeria) in simple words and in a single word for atom, GOD may bless you with that sum within a year. remember when GOD says be, no force in the universe can stop it.
