Am curious: where does that not happen in the US?

(And in parts of Canada they say 4-20-10 to mean 90 :-)

4-20-10 (quatre vingt dix) is weird for non-French speakers, as "siedemdziesiat" is weird to non-Polish speakers, or any other word in a foreign language.

To us French this is a word like others, it's not like we are calculating in our heads. Belgians have "septante" which is more logical but they do not calculate either.

I know I am in Quebec and speak French. I would prefer the Belgian way of octante/nonante. L.

It happens with dates and makes them unsortable.
