minus-squaresetVeryLoud(true);@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·edit-21 year agoIn Belgium, it’s Septante, Huitante, and Nonante.
minus-squareFiripu@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·edit-21 year agoNobody says huitante in Belgium. It’s 60, 70, 4*20, 90. edit: Downvote all you want. If you say huitante in Belgium, everyone will know you’re not from Belgium. Belgians say Soixante, Septante, Quatre-vingt, Nonante. Even in the dutch language part, that’s how they learn french. If you say Soixante-dix or Quatre-vingt-dix, everyone will know you’re french and not Belgian. Pretty simple…
minus-squaresetVeryLoud(true);@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 year agoInteresting, I always thought huitante was common place there, thanks for correcting me
minus-squareLaChaleurDeLaNuit@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoNonante, not neuvante but yes. In Switzerland and Québec too if I’m not mistaken.

minus-squareADTJ@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoI believe in québécois French they use octante instead of huitante
minus-squaresetVeryLoud(true);@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 year agono, we say soixante, soixante-dix, quatre-vingt, quatre-vingt dix in Quebec :P

minus-squareSolarMech@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-21 year agoNo, we use quatre-vignt dix (4x20+10), just like the French. If anyone is using octante or huitante, it is not common parlance to say the least.
minus-squareADTJ@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoYou mean quatre-vingt, not quatre-vingt-dix right?
