irrational

but yahoo cuts your number off so I'm not sure.
you've got 1 11 and that moves to a 111. potentially it looks like it will keep doing this,
but its not actually "repeating" like .038181818
(that would be a rational number)
ha! I though you had an extra 1 in there too.

irrational. It can be predicted how it repeats, but it cannot be made into a fraction, so irrational.
If it does not repeat in a way where you can put a bar over it, then it is irrational (easy way to think of it)

Do you mean 0.14114111411114... ? Your question looks like it has an extra "1" in it.
Anyway, it's irrational. There is no way to express it as the ratio of two integers.

Irrational- The three dots (ellipsis) mean, It is not possible to express exactly as a decimal.

this is irrational because it cannot be expressed as a fraction or whole number.
