Nonante, not neuvante but yes. In Switzerland and Québec too if I'm not mistaken.
I believe in québécois French they use octante instead of huitante
no, we say soixante, soixante-dix, quatre-vingt, quatre-vingt dix in Quebec :P
Ah my mistake, I thought you guys were sensible :P
No, 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.
You mean quatre-vingt, not quatre-vingt-dix right?
In Quebec it's: 60: 60, 70: 60 10, 71: 60 11, 77: 60 10 7, 78: 60 10 8, 79: 60 10 9, 80: 4 20 (hehe), 81: 4 20 1, 90: 4 20 10, 97: 4 20 10 7, 98: 4 20 10 8, 99: 4 20 10 9
Don't you dish French in Quebec?
Ah comme en France alors !
