<code>pi</code> is used because when you say 2000 you are saying the two of the third (power of ten) that is tu pi tu wan.
<code>pi</code> is used because if you say &quot;two thousand&quot;, then &quot;two&quot; is an adjective of the noun &quot;thousand&quot;, so the Toki Pona structure of this would be thousand pi two. The number 2,000 is the thousand of two which is the &quot;three (the third power of ten) of two&quot;: <code>tu wan pi tu</code>. [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PyaRXd21Du_nNIxXVOIuOzPTsFufjk5g This is a recording] saying 37; 352; 2000 and 2 sextillions(10^21) to show how to disambiguate with pauses.
 
* '''''C) Extra rule (can be ignored). Use weka at the beginning of a list of digits as a minus sign. It can go both before <code>pi</code> and after <code>pi</code>. weka in the middle means the digit is negative'''''
