Learning German as a foreign language, that was one of the painful aspects. Also, who thought it was a good idea to have /dreißig/ sound so much like /dreizehn/? Anyway…

I mean, who thought it was a good idea that "fifty" and "fifteen" should sound so similar?

[kergonath]

Yes indeed. This tripped me up occasionally when I was learning English as a foreign language as well!

We should just stop the whole teen thing and say it like we do everything else. Maybe onety five.
