German in absolutely wild. Spent 4 years learning it.

555 (five hundred and fifty five) translates to

Fünfhundertundfünfundfünfzehn

For easier reading: Fünf hundert und fünf und fünfzehn

“Five hundred and five and fifty”

And yes, I was taught that it was all one word…

*Fünfhundertfünfundfünfzig

"Fünfzehn" is 15.

Ack, haven’t practiced the language in 10 years. I want to get a babbel account to try and relearn it

I, too, believe we germans should commit and call it what it truly is: Weichwarenentwickler

For me the dawning horror that one might be a Softwareentwickler and the Google translate to confirm that is the case…

What's really confusing is speaking both English and German, and then encountering Dutch. Takes me a good 15 seconds minimum each time I hear it to figure out that I do not understand.
