French Numbers 1–100: The Pattern from 70 to 99
Learn French numbers in blocks. After twenty, most numbers combine a ten with a unit. In the common system used in France, 70 is soixante-dix, 80 is quatre-vingts and 90 is quatre-vingt-dix. Practise those three anchors and build the intervening numbers by saying the parts aloud.

From ten to sixty
Learn dix, vingt, trente, quarante, cinquante and soixante as anchors. Use et un in vingt et un through soixante et un. For numbers like vingt-deux and trente-trois, add the unit directly. The traditional spelling in this guide is one of the accepted ways to write these compounds.
From seventy to one hundred
Seventy-two is sixty plus twelve, soixante-douze. Eighty-one is quatre-vingt-un, without et and without the final s of quatre-vingts. Ninety-two is quatre-vingt-douze. You may hear septante and nonante in parts of the French-speaking world, so recognise those forms too.

Say 67, 74 and 95 as if you were reading three prices.
