Belgians are better at French than the French
Ask german how 9999 is written
But 70,80,90 are English numbers
He shoots, he four-scores!
70 = Sixty-ten? Ridiculous, it’s obviously half-fourths.
Quatre vingt dix nuts lol gottem
Basé et nombre pilé
Tough, though, throw, trough, thorough, through, thought.
I take no complaints on that subject from people who measure in inches, feet and ounces.
Attacking the person and not the argument is an ad hominem fallacy.
And yards…and Fahrenheits!
That F is zeroed out on fucking Brine makes it the most absurd thing.
Like OK there may be an argument for base 12 or base 16 (but not both)… But a mixture of water, ice, and sodium chloride?
Like OK blame a German I guess , but at least they were smart enough to decide, “Das ist stupid”
Nice! You’re my first elitist, eurotrash, shithead block of the day! Good work, Pierre!
Thank you, would you then like some info on the old British monetary system? Fartings, guineas, halfpences and the likes?
What did you expect from the French
Captain Picard is French so he ought to be in a better position to answer the question than most of us.
Captain Picard and his brother were sent off to an old fashioned English boarding school by their luddite father that didn’t allow them to transport home in the evening or weekends, thus their English accents (my head canon).
Picard’s brother became indoctrinated into the same fucked up luddite philosophy and didn’t even allow 24th century fire safety technology in his home, leading to the death of him, his wife and his son due to a fire (actual canon).
we talking picard or stewart?
Considering we don’t have 24th century fire tech yet I’m guessing this is about Star Trek.
hey speak for yourself
Four score and seven years ago…
…flows better and sounds grander than “Eighty seven years ago”.
What do you think “seven -ty” is. Seven ten
Yes, seven, ten times not sixty plus ten more
Ohhhhh. I misread that 👍
I love having to use 4 words to describe the number 99 (cope)
English doesn’t have proper words for 13 to 19.
Just wait until you find out how the Dutch count.
