	One of the few things I still recall from high school French (I graduated from HS 15 years ago).

	How did more people get 90 than 80?

	Spelling these numbers was much harder than remembering how they sound. I went back and forth between 'c' and 'q', tried combinations of 'a', 'e' and 'i'...

	Ms Trois told her cat not to go ice skating on the pond. He desided to do it anyway. He went to the middle of the pond, the ice cracked, un deux trois quatre cinq. That's how my 6th grade teacher taught me how to remember the first 5. Unfortunately it doesn't help with spelling.

	okay, why does it accept septante for 70? I was just playing around because I couldn't remember. Do some French-speaking countries use that instead?

	28/28. I will enjoy all the thumbs down i get from the jealous people.

	I memorized quatre-vingt-dix for nothing? I actually had to do both math and french and there was an easy way out? Rip-off. I fail, BTW. I couldn't remember how to spell six in french.

	....and while I've got my anorak on. In Tennis "Love" (meaning nothing/nil/zero etc..) comes from the French "L'Oeuf" meaning "the egg" to represent the shape of "0". Sorry, I'm off to spot some trains :-)

	And they said I'd never learn anything useful from being in French Immersion in school... how you like THIS sporcle result?

	GoonerLover66:	Jul 6th, 2009 at 20:32 GMT	2 points
	Vingt Huit! Oh I loved French, it was one of my favourite lessons at school.

	Q: There was a race between a British sailing boat, called five-four-three-two, and a French one, called un-deux-trois-quatre. Who won? A: five-four-three-two "one" and un-deux-trois-quatre "sank"! ...I await the thumbs down votes eagerly.

	chikka2:	Jul 6th, 2009 at 21:18 GMT	-1 points
	@mungar, Yes I believe you are right, that 80 is quatre-vingts. That's how I learnt it anyhow.

	Wow, way too many I could remember but not spell. Oops.

	28/28 :D Almost forgot soixante.. LOL! :(

	Can't believe it took so long to remember 15 - Amélie to the rescue. :D

	Journey2688:	Jul 7th, 2009 at 01:35 GMT	-1 points
	Even though i know nothing about French, i still feel stupid for missing six.

	@ bug: In Belgium they use septante, octante et nonante.

	Kazbar:	Jul 7th, 2009 at 02:17 GMT	1 point
	I knew the answers to all of them, but knew how to spell very few of them. Shows how much I studied in school, eh?

	JGA:	Jul 7th, 2009 at 03:25 GMT	5 points
	I'm glad to see it accepts septante, huitante and nonante, which are used in Switzerland! Also, although mungar got voted down for it, s/he was absolutely right: the cardinal numeral quatre-vingts has an 's' at the end.

	Trickle:	Jul 7th, 2009 at 03:31 GMT	3 points
	Indeed, it should be Quatre-vingts and Quatre-vingts-dix, since the original intent was that 80 would be 4 times 20, so Quatre Vingts (four twenties), a plural twenty indicating multiple twenties.

	Being from Montreal, this quiz was rather easy.

	There are two sides to that arguemet, drhaase. There are plenty of Americans who complain about non-US quizzes with no intention of satirising European users. In fact, it's reached the stage where there are more American complaining about non-US quizzes than there are Europeans about US-based quizzes.

	oldman:	Jul 7th, 2009 at 12:39 GMT	9 points
	We don't compalin about the American Quizes such as Top NBA Scorers or US President's middel names you konw what you are getting just as if it was a French Quiz. What we complain about is when a quiz about universal things ( e.g. logos or "Candy") all come from the US and us "foreigners" have to translate.

	Catherine_F:	Jul 7th, 2009 at 13:18 GMT	1 point
	I got them all in the end but it was harder than I thought it would be! I had forgotten that 13 to 16 aren't just "ten-three" etc like in German. Also would have forgotten soixante and soixante-dix if it hadn't given me the latter for typing "septante" (Didn't know that about Belgium/Switzerland!)

	BigThing:	Jul 7th, 2009 at 14:37 GMT	3 points
	Considering a fairly popular sex pose, I was surprised that so few people got 'soixante'.

	Offtheheazy6:	Jul 7th, 2009 at 15:30 GMT	0 points
	the spelling messed me up, I couldn't spell quatre, vingt, or soixante so that's like 8 numbers I couldn't type in

	norfolkshowrules:	Jul 7th, 2009 at 16:13 GMT	-2 points
	got most of them. knew them all but couldn't spell them. stupid french spellings
