German numbers are weird because we kinda switch the last two digits.
43 in most languages becomes '40 - 3', but in german you say '3 & 40'.
But we do not pronounce the whole number backwards.
143 in most languages becomes '100 - 40 - 3', in german you say '100 - 3 & 40'.
What about big numbers with millions and thousands and hundreds and tens and ones liiiiike 1,987,654?
One million nine hundred seven and eighty thousand six hundred four and fifty
