Yeah, friends of mine who took French said the numbers stuff was just immensely stupid

you reminded me

It's actually quatre vingt dix but still

YES

In the states, we pronounce it nyen dee.

WHY??

WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?

Literally all of the other countries surrounding you count like normal ppl

French: let me make this into an equation

"why is there an and"

that kills me

I mean, it is stupid

I like how Spanish uses Y for some numbers to simplify and am disappointed at the same time.

At least do it like Spanish

Noventa y dos
Ninety and two

See? Simple, easy anyone can figure it out

Learning how to count to 100 in French was the bane of my life when I was 11

Cos you actually have to learn it, not memorise a pattern

This video is killing me

what doesn't kill you makes you stronger

Once it gets to twenty/veinte

Some teen numbers use y as well, though.

16—19

oh we learning?

Honestly, the same goes for feet, yard and whatever

It's stupid

You and fee, Otti

You and feet, Otti

12 inches is 1 feet. 3 feets are 1 yard. And a 1000+ something is 1 mile.

What the firetruck kinda system is that to measure stuff
