minus-squarenyctre@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·4 months agoYeah, but then we’d have to say onety, twoty, threety and fivety as well. Just take it as its own word rather than four+ty and it’ll make more sense, I think.
minus-squareFireRetardant@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up19·edit-24 months agoOkay but forty and fourty are pronunced the same way. And I’m sure fivety wouldn’t sound funny if thats how we started off. Edit: and seventy, eighty, ninety all use their original number spelling.
