A number. More specifically, an unfathomably large number expected to be expressed in the upper double to lower
triple digits in the
decimal notation (think,
umpteen multiplied by ten). Should generally be the result of adding six to a multiple of ten, but that is not required.
"I only have shinty-six days left to live." (

"I drink roughly shinty-six
cups of coffee each day." (you've been wondering how much coffee this person drinks, because they're always shaking and their
handwriting sucks.)
