    So they count like the danes? 79,5 in danish would be “ni og en halv fjers komma fem”.

    “Four hundred and nine and two tens”.

    We used to do this in Norway too, but it’s dying out now, because “Telegrafverket” made an effort to kill it, as it would make things easier for phone operators. Unfortunately it worked.
