Why K stand for thousand

Hello friends today i have brought an interesting post about do you know why 'K' stands for thousand.

5 Unrelated Letter K

Have you ever wondered why the totally unrelated letter “K” was used to abbreviate the word thousand? We sure did and this is what we have found after all these years…you’d be shocked!

Money is the most important element in the world today. You have money = You have power, status, education, quality life so on and so forth.

8 Letter Thousand
The letter K came to existence as a replacement for the 8 lettered Thousand, much before you can imagine. The credit for this goes to the Greeks.

Verse In Bible
Some people attribute this to a verse in Bible, Revelation 20:2-6 “And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, & Satan, and bound him a THOUSAND years.”… A million years later (We are just going with the flow of using terms loosely) kids gyrated and cried over a Vampire movie flick when the song Thousand years played on loop. But the truth remains, the Bible having been translated several times, its original language is lost.

French Took Greek Word
It actually references to an uncertain amount of time. Now, if this confusion was not enough, the French took the Greek word “Chilioi” & shortened it to “Kilo.”

Kilo as 1000
New words like Kiloliter, Kilogram, Kilotonne, etc. referred to 1000 liters & so on. This led to people all over the world start using the word K as an abbreviation for thousand, which soon also seeped into the avenues of economic lingo, thus the transition of $10,000 became $10k, $45,000 became $45k & so on and so forth.
