Huh... because it isn't?

---

For the same reason that 21 isn't pronounced twoty-one or 31 threety-one. It's not important. Worry about something else!

---

is it not?

---

Because then 12 would be onety two and so on.

It's just a whole can of worms that doesn't need to be opened.

---

because it sound ridiculous

---

Just because.

---

because they didn't want it to be mistake for "one." It's based on latin, also, and eleven in latin doesn't sound like "one."

---

Sounds too close to twenty one.

---

Same as no twoety-two: False economy.

Following the pattern of the numbers to come, it would most likely actually be tenty one, tenty two, etc. I happen to like the words the english language has for these two digit numbers that start with a 1.

I can't believe so many people take this question seriously.

Thanks for the morning chuckle!

Listening to Genius on Radio 4 last night were we?

Nothing like a bit of plagiarism is there?


Sorry Grassmonkeys, I was in a mood.

---

lol

---

If should be. Then 2 onety one's would make twoty two. Mind you, it could make bingo a little confusing... Legs onety one?? lol

---

Sorry got more to think about

---

I pronounce it that way - why, am I doing something wrong? How do you pronounce it?

---
