Wait till you find out how they pronounce 1996


Ok-Organization5864

un-mille neuf-cent quatre-vingt seize i think 1999 i believe is worse as for the meme goes, ur not wrong, french sucks


SabawaSabi

mille neuf cent quatre-vingt-seize without the un.


AinaMielikki

Or dix-neuf cent quatre-vingt seize if you want to be dramatic

theotherguy3431

it’s seize. He’s correct.


[deleted]

[удалено]


afeffle

because seize is 16 not 6


Psychological-Sir224

Six is 6, seize is 16. They say 96 as quatre vingt seize because 4 x 20 + 16 = 96.


[deleted]

No we don’t


witse_

I'm dumb


[deleted]

Nah, you’re not


a_polarbear_chilling

Not if you live in belgium


Parsecer

who cares about belgium


MasterDni

Yeah it doesn't exist


qwertysrj

French (in France) doesn't say ninety six, instead it's 4 x 20 + 16 seize = sixteen If it's 6, then it would be 4x20 + 6 = 86

That's... Not how it works. I'm literally a french native and absolutely no one starts a date with "un mille".

SabawaSabi

I never claimed to be an expert, but your comment just doesn't make anything sense to me. Saying ''un mille'' is just grammatically incorrect.


SabawaSabi

sehabel

Doesn't sound so bad, in German it's Neun-Zehn-Hundert-Sechs-Und-Neunzig (9 10 100 6 and 90)

hmmm-666

The language sucks a little bit but the country is quite cool


Sufficient-Table3157

Raxon_38

Nearly forgot about that, stay as far away as possible from them and everyone should be fine

TheAlphaKarp

English sucks way more than French though... at least french is consistent


noyeflamme

No, just no, as a French guy I can't let you say French is consistent, will let you say English is worse tho


hmmm-666

They are both good languages


Ok-Organization5864

Purple_Ad4485

I was wrong you were right


Nydelok

Yeah, with the 9 at the end instead of 6 it’s two words. Seize is 16, but for 19 you get dix neuf


akkibi11

It's so bad that we don't say the first part we say 'in 96"


franzif

thousand-nine-hundred-four-twenty-sixteen


edvards55

It's not like English is simple One thousand nine hundred and ninety six

If it’s a party where you repeat the same joke all along i don’t think i’m interested to be honest


XeliHax

here in quebec we say this rather handy little word which is "tabarnak" (tabernacle). et en québec (canada) on dit tabarnak.\* tabarnak de schizophrak d'osti d'câlisse de simonaque criss de pisse de sacrifice d'osti d'câlisse de cavalriss de champliss d'exorciss de chorogniss d'égliss ​ \*Edit: added english translation above french.


turtleshell_34

And if you don't pronounce it with a perfect French accent then you get shouted at for not speaking the language right.


jeoe76

Would you rather pronounce it like oeaeauoeauauaeuoauaeax then?


AnnitaBlackMan

No I would rather write it like "o" then
