Just wait until you look into French numbers.
You know everytime your mention French number, there is always belgian or Swiss who will tell you :
๐ง๐ช๐จ๐ญ: 90+7
โ๏ธ๐ค
please... french swiss....
what the actual fuck is wrong with you, denmark?
...whats not?
Cope hagen?
Aebleskiver.
apple slices..?
While learning Danish I figured out that's just the arcane incantation for the number. It's language juju, and you just have to know that it be like it do. Yes, it's syv og halvfems, but the reason behind it doesn't matter anymore. The rest of the double digit numbers are a mess as well; 30 is tredive (three tens in old norse) but starting with 50 it's this weird score (20) and half-to-score system.
When I first started learning my brain was desperately trying to make heads or tails of it and rationalize it somehow. And then I realized that was stupid, abandoned reason, and now I just utter these backwards ass numbers and we all nod and everyone is happy lol. Language is weird.

I can't stop giggling about the Danish way of saying that. Like, I don't even understand how that's 90? LMAO.
That's not real. I refuse to believe that.
It is, but we just say seven and half fives these days. Everybody knows the twenty are implied...
I think Finnish would be
๐ซ๐ฎ: 9โข10+7
Nine-tens seven
Where do you think nine-ty in English comes from?
I think it comes from nine-tens. But if you check, that commenter didn't write it so.
Same for Japanese
๐ฏ๐ต: 9โข10+7
ไน(kyuu) ๅ(juu) ไธ(nana)
Also, similar to English, 20 does not follow the pattern but instead has its own word. (Still written as 2โข10 though)
This guy doesn't like the French way.

Meanwhile in CJK languages we just chill and say
9 x 10 + 7. Why doesn't everyone do that?I guess "ninety" likely stems from "nine tens", so I guess English isn't far off
