mila

1. plural of mille (“one thousand”)

• Used instead of mille when it is modified by another number, often univerbated unless the modifier is not spelled as a word.

  due mila ― two thousand

  duemila (preferred spelling) ― two thousand

  2 mila (when modifier is spelled using digits, or similar) ― 2 thousand

• Used instead of mille when modified by another plural determiner, often to emphasize that it is a large number (not necessarily greater than or equal to 1000.)

  1622, Tommaso Campanella, Dispregio della morte:

  e quanti mila n'ha una stella sola.

  and how many of them does a single star have.

  (literally, “and how many thousands of them does a single star have.”)

• Used instead of mille after NUMERO e più (“NUMBER and more”), with the meaning of "(roughly,) more than NUMBER thousand".

  1821, Francesco Vigilio Barbacovi, Memorie storiche particolari della Naunia, page 107:

  contiene oggidì la popolazione di quaranta e più mila anime.

  nowadays, it has a population of at least forty thousand souls.

  (literally, “it contains, nowaydays, the population of forty and more thousand souls.”)
