Must be time to rename this thread : teach WP to count in Finnish.

Maybe we should have a Finnish thread Krabo.

Kaksikymmentäkaksi.

It will be interesting to see what happens when we reach 9898. The Finnish numeral words are terrible at the other end. Nobody knows how they are spelled.

Maybe we could send him a dictionary. I checked out the one you recommended. ?80-120, plus postage. Might have to wait for a bit.

Kaksikymmentäkuusi.

Books seem to be expensive in your side of the world. Here it would be like 20-30 ?.
