The Off Topic Topic

I guess it's a dig at the supposedly unintelligible Danish.

There is nothing supposedly about the unintelligibility of the Danish language.  I don't think I ever understood a single Danish word.

After looking at the Danish article on the number 90 it appears that the graphic is actually correct. 

90 (Halvfems) er:

Det naturlige tal efter 89, derefter følger 91
Et heltal
Halvfems kommer af halvfemsindstyve, en sammensætning af halvfemte (der betyder 4½, ligesom halvanden betyder 1½), sinde (gang) og tyve, altså egentlig '4½ gange tyve'.

[Valmy]

Wow I did not think it was possible to say 97 in a more weird and nonsensical way than the Francophones do it.

Wrong word here Valmy, Francophones of Belgium or Switzerland (Romands) say it in a perfectly logical way, as the other Romance speakers: nonante-sept.   

I am talking about real French not some regional patois

About time you brush up your jacobine street cred, could be more convincing though.
There are far worse French dialects, not to mention specific instances of it. The ones I mentioned actually make sense and are not rejected by the Académie.
C+.

How did you know my grade in French I?

[Duque de Bragança]

It's just a past grade. :gallic shrug:

[Zanza]

Liep, is this true? Damn northerners and your innate math skills.

They got the Frenchies right, so I guess that's how Danes do it...

The German makes less sense than the Swedish, so it should not have the same smilie.

[Jacob]

... and really, there's no difference between the Swedish and the Japanese. They're both "nine tens".

[Liep]

That's true. Only, young people wouldn't pronounce the twenty.

[Valmy]

Woah. That is so hip.

[Liep]

Young here would be 50 and below.

Halvfems or halvfemsindstyve. Makes sense to choose the shorter versions

There is reason behind the madness, it's half between 4*20 and 5*20.

[The Brain]

Danish is a horrible, horrible language.

[Liep]

Danish is a horrible, horrible language.

And that is why I like it.

[Admiral Yi]

Is that seriously the way you say 97 in Lego?

[Josquius]

Danish is a horrible, horrible language.
