From Proto-Italic *smīɣeslī, from Proto-Indo-European *smih₂ǵʰéslih₂ (“one thousand”), from *ǵʰes- (“hand”) (whence also hir, Ancient Greek χείρ (kheír)), as if "full hand". Cognates include Ancient Greek χίλιοι (khílioi) and Sanskrit सहस्र (sahásra).

- innumerable, a vast number
Numeral[edit]
mīlle m, f, n (plural mīlia); irregular

Usage notes[edit]
The singular form behaves as an indeclinable adjective, but the plural behaves as a declinable noun. See Appendix:Latin cardinal numerals for additional information.
