From FFF (“Fédération Française de Football”).

2021 March 13, “Noel Le Graet reconduit à la tête de la 3F.”, in FFF:

Le patron de la « 3F » a ajouté qu’il n’aurait « même pas pris » Zidane au téléphone, si celui-ci avait essayé de le joindre, parce qu’il était hors de question de penser à un autre technicien que Didier Deschamps.

2023 January 8, François Tesson, “« On ne manque pas de respect à la légende », Mbappé reprend Le Graët de volée”, in Sports:

The boss of the French Football Federation added that he "wouldn't even have answered" Zidane's call if he had tried to reach him, because it was out of the question to consider another coach than Didier Deschamps.

Le président de la Fédération française de football Noël Le Graët peut se frotter les mains : l’équipe de France est encore la poule aux œufs d’or de la « 3F », avec cette deuxième finale en quatre ans.

2022 December 18, “Coupe du monde. Combien vont gagner les Bleus avec cette finale ?”, in Ouest-France:

The president of the French Football Federation, Noël Le Graët, is probably rubbing his hands with glee: the French national team is once again the golden goose of the FFF, having reached their second final in four years.

Mais d’avoir le choix des grands clubs, c’est quand même exceptionnel à son âge", a encore déclaré le président de la ’3F’.

2017 June 24, “TRANSFERTS - NOËL LE GRAËT (FFF) AIMERAIT QUE KYLIAN MBAPPÉ (MONACO) "RESTE EN FRANCE"”, in Eurosport:

"But to be able to choose between the great clubs, it's still exceptional at his age," declared once again the president of the French Football Federation.

A Bavarian, Mr. Willy Koesteler, has just established a very curious scientific work, a wall map, which was exhibited at the Paris Fair and which shows the development of the number 2, from the first to the 250th power. He arrived, moreover, at the concept of the figure 2 to the 500th power, expressed in numbers as follows: 3,273 quinvigintillion, 390,607 quattuorvigintillion, 896,141 trevigintillion, 870,013 duovigintillion, 189,696 unvigintillions, 827,599 vigintillion, 152,216 novemdecillion, 642,046 octodecillion, 43 thousand 064 septendecillion, 789.483 sexdecillion, 291.368 quindecillion, 96.133 quartuordecillion, 796.404 tredecillion, 674.554 duodecillion, 883.270 undecillion, 92.325 decillion, 904.157 nonillion, 150.8886 octillion, 684.127 septillion, 560.071 sextillion, 9.217 quintillion, 256.545 quadrillion, 885.393 trillion, 53.328 billion, 527 million, 589 thousand 376.

La plupart des dictionnaires s’arrêtent avant d’avoir atteint le dodécillion ou le trédécillion, mais rien n’empêche de concevoir, par exemple, le centillion (mot que j’avoue n’avoir encore jamais rencontré) qui, dans le système décimal chiffré, s’écrirait 1 suivi de 600 zéros…

1997, Alain Frontier, La grammaire du français [French Grammar], Belin, →ISBN, page 311:

Most dictionaries stop before having reached the trevigintillion or the quinvigintillion, but nothing prevents us from conceiving, for example, [10⁶⁰⁰] (a word that I admit I have never encountered yet) which, in the decimal system, would be written as 1 followed by 600 zeros…
