lebenty leben (uncountable)

  1. (slang, uncommon) An unspecified large number (of).
    • 1999 October 14, Jerome A. Schroeder, “Good Old Hitler”, in soc.history.war.world-war-ii[1] (Usenet):
      The French demanded lebenty leben million francs
      and the krauts said "We'll give lebenty leben million francs." The ensuing
      deliberate inflation harmed the German middle and working classes far more
      than the French and probably made inevitable the rise of the Nazis.
