# |intword

turns a large number into words.

## Documentation

Turns a large integer into a friendly word form. Useful for numbers big enough that the exact figure stops mattering — headline counts, follower totals, dashboard tiles.

### Template

```django
{% load humanize %}
<p>{{ 1000000|intword }}</p>
<p>{{ 1200000|intword }}</p>
```

### Result

```django
<p>1.0 million</p>
<p>1.2 million</p>
```

Only values of a million or more are converted; anything smaller comes back unchanged, so pair it with `intcomma` if you want every number formatted.
