French, sexy language, but weird.

read this:
91 : sembilan puluh satu (bahasa indonesia)
91 : ninety one (english)
mirip kan?? keduanya mengalikan sembilan dengan sepuluh lalu menambahkan angka satu.. (9×10)+1..

nahh.. baca yang ini..
91 : quatre-vingt-onze (french)
atau bila diartikan adalah empat dikalikan duapuluh lalu ditambah sebelas!! (4×20)+11..

ANEH.

Sering denger bahasa Perancis? Ada yang bilang kumur2, ada yang bilang seksi, ada yang bilang keren, ada yang bilang romantis, dan sebagainya.

Okelah. Tapi di mata gw, Perancis tuh salah satu bahasa penting dunia. Total, Schlumberger, Danone, dan banyak perusahaan penting lainnya tuh dari Perancis..

Nahh.. alhasil.. gw pengen belajar lah ya.. sempet denger cerita temen2 yang pernah ke Perancis dan yang pernah belajar Perancis. Dan inilah hasilnya:

Numbers in French

0 zéro
1 un
2 deux
3 trois
4 quatre
5 cinq
6 six
7 sept
8 huit
9 neuf
10 dix
11 onze
12 douze
13 treize
14 quatorze
15 quinze
16 seize
17 dix-sept
18 dix-huit
19 dix-neuf

yaa.. gitu lah yaa.. angka-angka namanya juga..

For 20 through 69, counting is almost just like in English: the tens word (vingt, trente, quarante, etc.) followed by the ones word (un, deux, trois). The only difference is that for 21, 31, etc., the word et is introduced between the tens word and one: vingt-et-un, trente-et-un, quarante-et-un, etc.

yaa.. masih mirip2 English lah yaa.. twenty, twenty-one, twenty-two, fifty-six, sixty-nine.. oke2… Nahhh.. ini yang membuat gw mulai tertawa…

70 to 79 is trickier. In French, 70 is soixante-dix, literally “sixty-ten.” 71 is soixante et onze (sixty and eleven), 72 is soixante-douze (sixty-twelve), and so on, up to 79.

Berarti 70 tuh 60+10, 71 tuh 60+11, dan 72 tuh 60+12… hahahahaha… gw mulai agak mengerenyitkan dahi.. dan sampai temen gw bilang bagian yang ini…

80 is quatre-vingts, literally four-twenties (think “four-score”). 81 is quatre-vingt-un (four-twenty-one), 82 is quatre-vingt-deux (four-twenty-two), and so on, all the way up to ninety. 90 is quatre-vingt-dix (four-twenty-ten), 91 is quatre-vingt-onze (four-twenty-eleven), etc.

Huahahahahahaha.. APA MAKSUD?? Hahahaha.. 80 tuh 4×20!! 81 tuh 4×20+1!! 90 tuh 4×20+10!!!! Huahahahahahahahahahahaha…

BAHASA YANG ANEH DAN AMAT MENARIK.

ANYWAY, 100 to 999 work just like in English, except that when you have cent at the end of the number, it takes an s, but when cent is followed by another number, the s is dropped. Also, note that you cannot pause after the word cent.

Lalu satu terbesit di pikiran gw.. gimana ya anak SD yang lagi ulangan mencongak di sekolah??

Di Indonesia, guru bakal bilang..
soal nomor 1: 80 kali 3 tambah 90.. nahhhhh… itu aja dah bikin kita2 bingung pas SD!!!
LALU MEREKA GIMANA???

gw yakin biasa aja sih.. hehehe.. krn pastinya mereka dah terbiasa menyebut akan dengan membagi dengan 20.. tapi umumnya bahasa di dunia membagi dengan 10, 100, 1000, dst.. what’s up with ‘20′ in france?

Hehehe… menarik sekali..

dan gw jadi berpikir.. ANGKA ROMAWI.. MMVII (2007).. how did they read that? “dua-ribu-tujuh” in roman kah?? atau em-em-ve-i-i??
