    What's millions upon millions
    Message from beifun posted on 31-12-2010 at 15:53:48 (D | E | F)
    Hello.
    Could you help me please?
    quoted sentence:
    There lived millions upon millions of poor and tired human beings.

    I've known "millions of",but what's "millions upon millions of"?
    I guess it is another form of "millions of millions of",right?

    Hello,

    It is formal language, you can use it.

    Regards.
