need help from any teachers.. math question 5th grade

my daughter has a sheet that says..."write the number in short word form"

ex. 62,041
would that be just writing it out like sixtytwo thousand and fortyone or is there someting else this means?

i'm a fifth grade teacher and have never heard the term "short word form"!
my guess would be as the others said,like you write a check.
(oh, and just so you know, there would be no "and" between thousand and forty one - just sixty two thousand, forty one) ("and" signifies a decimal point).

i agree. Maybe it's the teachers way of showing the difference between writing

sixty-two thosand forty one

and six ten thousands, two thousands... etc.

That's all i can think of.
