The tri- refers to three.
The prefices come from the European use where the prefices represented the powers of a million. This is known as the long scale.
billion = million^2 (bi- = 2)
trillion = million^3 (tri- = three)
quadrillion = million^4 (quadra- = four)
and so on.
This meant that a number with a prefix representing the number n had 6n zeros.
However, most non-European countries, as well as the UK, use the short scale. In this scale, there is no direct link between the prefix and the power. From a billion onwards, (prefix + 1) is the power of 1000. In this scale, a number with a prefix representing the number m had 3*(m+1) zeros.
Some words that begin with tri [as a prefix] include: 1.trillion 2.triathlon 3.triceratops 4.trilogy 5.triangle 6.tripod 7.triad
555 trillion is a number. It does not really mean anything, unlike words, where there is a definition for every word in the dictionary.

Three times each year.
Taking a trillion to mean 10^12, divide by (12 in/ft) to get 83,333,333,333.33 ft (about 83 billion)

The root word of trillion is "tri," which comes from the Latin word for three.
tricycle, triangle, triangular, trivia, trillion, tricep, triacid, triatomic, tri-city
the bigger than trillion is quadrillion because of the tri equivalent to three and quad equivalent to four

Trillion is a contraction of tri-million. The "tri-" prefix implies 3; how that is used as a power depends where you are:On the long scale, based on powers of a million, as used in Europe:1 trillion = (1 million)³ = (10⁶)³ = 10¹⁸ = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 On the short scale, based on powers of a thousand plus one, as used in USA:1 trillion = (1 thousand)³⁺¹ = (10³)⁴ = 10¹² = 1,000,000,000,000
the "tri-flicer" if that is what you mean is a plane made in 1995.
1,000,000,000,000,000,000 or one thousand trillion. what do you mean by one thousand trillion?
After one trillion comes quadrillion, then quintillion, then sextillion, septillion, octillion and so on... The "tri"comes from latin and represents three. Then "quad" represents 4 and so on and so forth...
Tried means you put an effort into something, or atempted something, or it can mean that you were put on trial for a crime
