The other day I decided I would stop saying quatre-vingt-dix (4, 20, 10 = 90) instead I would say huit-dix-dix (8, 10, 10) or even deux-quarante-dix (2, 40, 10) and shit like that
to add some context i forgot about it an hour after
Why not use the existing septante, octante, neunante?
idk i was tired and i tought it was the funniest thing
confirming it's funny
I'd actually be down for huitante, in order to keep the latin root like other numbers instead of the greek one
Neunante always struck me as a bit weird (although much better than the math thingy).
Neuvante would seem a more reasonable derivation from neuf.
Would also make it closer to other latin languages like Italian and Spanish.
In Portuguese is "Noventa" also
People are actually using huitante and not octante.
Regions use septante, huitante and neunante outside France and especially in Switzerland.
Ask the guys in Modern times who decided that fick it we will go for the nonsensical method.
Depends where though, Belgium and Swiss use septante...
Yes, they are the sensible players in this game
