Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What number is 'trente sept'?

Answer: 37

trente = 30, sept = 7.

2. What is the French for sixteen?

Answer: seize

Treize = 13, quatorze = 14, quinze = 15.

3. What is the French for eleven?

Answer: onze

4. What would you get if you add 'cinquante' and 'quarante'?

Answer: quatre-vingt-dix

50 + 40 = 90. The French for 80 is 'quatre-vingts' (in other words, four times twenty.) Note that between 70 and 99 inclusive French behaves as if the base were 20 rather than 10. See note on Q6, too.

5. What number is 'vingt-trois'?

Answer: 23

6. What do you get if you multiply 'dix' by 'sept'?

Answer: soixante-dix

10 multiplied by 7 is 70, so 'soixante-dix' (literally 'sixty (plus) ten'.) Note that above between 70 and 99 inclusive French behaves as if the base were 20 rather than 10. Some dialects, such as Walloon, have 'septante' (70), but this is NOT acceptable in Standard French.

7. What number follows quarante?

Answer: 41

Quarante is 40.

8. What do you get if you add 'trois', 'sept', 'onze' and 'dix'?

Answer: 31

3 + 7 + 11 + 10 = 31

9. What do you get if you ask for 'deux cafes'?

Answer: 2 coffees

10. What is the number AFTER cinquante-cinq?

Answer: cinquante-six

Cinquante is 50, cinq is 5.

11. What number precedes 'vingt-sept'?

Answer: vingt-six

12. What do you get if you subtract 'onze' from 'vingt'?

Answer: neuf

Twenty minus eleven.

13. How do you say 'thirteen' in French?

Answer: treize

14. What do you get if you subtract 'trois' from 'cent'?

Answer: quatre-vingt-dix-sept

100 minus 3 = 97. Numbers in the high 90s get complicated in French, 97 is literally 'four times twenty, and ten and seven'!

15. What is the French for 88?

Answer: quatre-vingt-huit
