minus-squareChariotwheel@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down1·1 year agoGermany and France are already stupid, but Denmark combines them and makes it even worse.
minus-squareAnamana@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·edit-21 year agoI think the German solution works better for the German language. ‘neunzigundzwei’ sounds worse than ‘zweiundneunzig’ or at least less flowy. But I’m obv biased by being German lol and this is just one example.
minus-squareChariotwheel@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 year agoI think that’s just because you’re used to it. I am German too and it would feel weird, but our way of saying it is really weird, when considered. Especially if you add a hundred. 137 One-hundred seven and thirty It’s just uselessly jumping around.
minus-squaredrcobaltjedi@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoYou know, I was willing to defend you Germans here assuming you just said the numbers right to left, but no. Now I’m not going to.
minus-squareCommunicationOk3492@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoYeah, I think we’re just biased. If it would have been always the other way around, we probably would think it’s the flowy way to say it xD
minus-squarePoiar@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·edit-21 year agoYeah… This is not the right way Danes say it. It’s not tooghalvfemsindstyvende It’s more like toårhalfæms. Nobody says sindstyvende, only people who don’t know the language…
