Esence: So 70, soixante-dix in French, is literally "sixty-ten." 71 is soixante et onze (sixty and eleven), 72 is soixante-douze (sixty-twelve), and so on, up to 79.
There is no word for "eighty" in standard French,* instead 80 is quatre-vingts, literally four-twenties (think "four-score"). 81 is quatre-vingt-un (four-twenty-one), 82 is quatre-vingt-deux (four-twenty-two), and so on, all the way up to 89.
There's no word for ninety either, so you continue using quatre-vingt and adding from ten. 90 is quatre-vingt-dix (four-twenty-ten), 91 is quatre-vingt-onze (four-twenty-eleven), etc.
Māsa, kura kādu brīdi strādāja Francijā viesnīcas recepcijā, kur saskārās ar kredītkaršu numuru uzklausīšanu pa telefonu(pa diviem cipariem), veicot rezervācijas, bija baigākajā starā par šo brīnumu. |
