squillions
Heaps beyond counting
Squillions is a playful, exaggerated term for an enormous but unspecified number—essentially a hyperbolic version of millions or billions.
British and Australian in origin, it emphasizes vastness without precision: I've told you squillions of times, They must have squillions stashed away.
The word conveys informal emphasis rather than any actual quantity.
