2k words

Hello, Can anybody help me with a translation for 2k words?
Context: We still need a helping hand with 2k words.
Thanks.
I can't really tell you, could it be key words?
Sorry. I'm lost.
Thanks.
Thanks a lot. What does the k stand for?
Thanks a lot.
Technically, 1k is 1024
and therefore 2k is 2048.
However, most people make the mistake of considering 1k as 1000.

Saludos.
De Wikipedia:

The SI prefix for a thousand is kilo-, officially abbreviated as k—for instance prefixed to "meter" or its abbreviation m, kilometer or km signifies a thousand meters, as such, technically oriented people occasionally represent the number in a non-standard notation by replacing the last three zeros of the general numeral with "k", for instance, 30 k for 30,000.

Así lo tenía entendido también yo; k = 1000

Lo que no sé si no será la correcta es la versión de alexiae: dos palabras clave (two keywords)

Tal vez con un poco más de contexto.

Si hablamos de bits y bytes, estamos usando base 2, y
1k= 2^10=1024, y 2K=2048. 1 kB (kilobyte) =1024 B (bytes)

Pero si hablamos del sistema métrico, entonces k=10^3=1000.

Context is everything!!!
Sorry about the context, but that was it. Anyway. I understood the meaning. TKANKS!!!!

That's it in a nutshell, Cvermar, thanks.
