Group boundary: 1 | 607
The comma boundary separates 1 from 607: “one thousand” is read before “six hundred seven”.
One thousand six hundred seven
Pattern: Thousands with a silent tens place
1,607 splits into 1 | 607. In the final group, the tens place is zero, so “seven” follows “six hundred” directly.

The comma boundary separates 1 from 607: “one thousand” is read before “six hundred seven”.
The tens position contains zero. It preserves place value in the numeral but adds no spoken word.
The American English style used here normally omits “and” between “hundred” and the following tens or ones.
