Now we are at the numbers 70-100, it gets tricky in French.

Instead of 80 they say “four twenties” which is quatre-vingt (quatre is 4, vingt is twenty)

Instead of 90, they say four twenties and ten, which is quatre-vingt-dix. Then for 91, it is “four twenties eleven”, which is “quatre-vingt-onze”.

It can be very confusing, but don’t worry!

Watch this song and see if it helps make sense.
