- 110 (number)
-
110 (one hundred [and] ten) is the natural number following 109 and preceding 111.
It is also known as "eleventy", a term made famous by linguist and author J. R. R. Tolkien (Bilbo Baggins celebrates his eleventy-first birthday at the beginning of The Lord of the Rings) and derived from the Old English hund endleofantig.[1] When the word eleventy is used, it may indicate the exact number (110), or more commonly an indefinite large number such as gazillion.
