New testing conducted at France's oldest PV system have shown that its solar modules can still provide performance values in line with what the manufacturers promised.
Well, I DO know how the French count and compared to English it IS highly confusing. You can hardly convince me that saying “Four times twenty and ten” is as straight forward as saying “Nine tens”.
And just to be clear: I’m not some Yankee or Brit with a superiority complex, no, I am German, and we have our own shitty version of this: Instead of moving along the digits from highest to lowest, as in “Four hundreds and two tens and nine”, we do “Four hundred and nine and two tens”.
From 11 to 19 is always kind of weird in many languages. In Italian you go from essentially saying “one-ten” “two-ten”…“six-ten” to “ten-seven” “ten-eight” “ten-nine”. Then it goes in like in English. Why? No reason ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Wow, it’s like US uses metric system for counting and y’all do “imperial counting”
It indeed is.

But Basque isnt an Indo-European language its a Paleo-European isolate. Cultural mixing not with standing.
And don’t even get started with Danish.
What the hell is wrong with y’all?
It’s less confusing if you think of 70 and 90 as separate words without trying to analyze what their constituting words mean.
But etymologically, sure, it makes no sense.
The dude was saying people are angry at you because they don’t understand, not that you dont understand.
English is less consistent, going from nine-teen to twenty-one. German stays consistent with its lower two digits.
