The Welsh way of doing numbers is even more bonkers than French and Danish.

"The thirty first" is "Yr unfed ar ddeg ar hugain", meaning "The first and ten and twenty".

"The eighteenth" is "Yr Deunawfed" (The two-nineth).

"The nineteenth" is "Yr pedwar ar bymtheg" (four and fifteenth).

@derickr Quite a few of the ones in French where to support historic trade units/ collections of trade units.
like sales unit "twenty bottles of wine" fit in a crate, and you ordered 4 and 1/2 crates, or 90 bottles.

Would the same apply to Welsh?
@channelOwen I don't know. I'm just learning it, but it wouldn't surprise me!
