My Danish grandpa used to mock our Norwegian numbers (who is he to speak, with the Danish number system being completely wack, heh), by saying toti-en, toti-to etc as 21, 22, because he found it funny that we had a different word for 20 than for the other tens.

Yea, with Danish they have special words for... let's see: 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90.

Ouch. Just absolutely horrible. Swedish is amazingly regular compared to that.
