minus-squareSolarMech@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-29 months 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-up1·9 months agoYou mean quatre-vingt, not quatre-vingt-dix right?

minus-squareFiripu@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down1·edit-29 months 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…
