Actually, all truncated numbers have two notations.

1.5000... (or 1.5 as we'd normally write) is the same as 1.4999....

0.1000... is the same as 0.09999999 (this one is pretty easy to infer when one accepts that 0.999... is equal to 1, because 0.0999 is the same as 0.999.../10, and 0.1 is the same as 1/10, and because 0.999...=1, naturally 0.1 must be equal to 0.0999...)

Fixed it for you.

I've never heard that word before. :/

While the language of math itself is international, some words which are related to math aren't, so I don't really know what that means :-3
