The number 1000 (one thousand) in French is mille (pronounced meel). Unlike English, where you say "one thousand," in French you simply use the standalone word mille without adding an indefinite article beforehand. For larger numbers, such as 2,000, you say deux mille, and for 1,000,000, you use the distinct masculine noun un million, following specific numerical compounding rules.
