*Tens and units are joined with a hyphen. So, 22 = vingt-deux, 45 =quarante-cinq etc. If the unit is a 1, then the word et is inserted between tens and units: 21 = vingt et un, 31 = trente et un etc. (et=ay)

(60+10, 60+11, 60+12, etc.)

70 = soixante-dix, 71 =soixante et onze, 72 = soixante-douze, 73 = soixante-treize etc. Notice the et in 71 which mimics the behaviour of 21, 31 etc.

The French for eighty is quatre-vingts. Numbers 81-99 consist of quatre-vingt- (4 -20s) (minus the -s) plus a number 1-19: 81 = quatre-vingt-un, 82 =quatre-vingt-deux, 90 = quatre-vingt-dix, 91 = quatre-vingt-onze etc. Notice that none of these numbers use the word et.

100 = cent (sahn)
