Aren't the only weirdness in French 70, 80 and 90? That's nothing compared to German :)

Georgian has a fun number system too - numbers between 20-90 are expressed as a multiple of 20 + a number between 1 and 19: http://blog.conjugate.cz/georgian-is-fun

Its weird its not consistent! :D

The german thing is just weird until you get used to it, with french I constantly go, wait, crap this is over 70, whats the deal again. I blame the wine consumption.
