A difference between Dutch and Swedish is the way you use numbers. Swedish is similar to English, where the groups of ten come before single digits, like 23 is “twenty-three” (Swedish: tjugotre). However, in Dutch we switch things around: “twenty-three” becomes “drieëntwintig“, which means “three and twenty“. This is similar to the German dreiundzwanzig.
Strange? It can be stranger.. Like the Danish number system.
I actually tried to explain the Danish system as a reply here, but… i gave up 🙂
