- Lucas: Bienvenue back to Learn French with Fexingo. I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna. Episode 194! We're climbing higher in numbers. Lucas: Last time we did 71 to 80. Today, we pick up with 81 to 85. Luna: Oh good, I remember 80 was quatre-vingts. Lucas: Exactly. And 81 is simply quatre-vingt-un. Listen: quatre-vingt-un. Luna: Quatre-vingt-un. No 's' on vingt, right? Lucas: Right. Because it's 80 and one. Say it with me: quatre-vingt-un. Luna: Quatre-vingt-un. Lucas: Perfect. Now 82: quatre vingt deux. Luna: quatre vingt deux. That's like 80 and 2. Lucas: Yes. And 83: quatre vingt trois. Luna: quatre vingt trois. So 84 must be quatre vingt quatre. Lucas: That's it! And 85: quatre vingt cinq. Luna: quatre vingt cinq. Okay, I think I've got them. Can we use them in a sentence? Lucas: Sure! Imagine you're at a market. You see a cheese that costs 83 euros. You say 'Le fromage coûte quatre vingt trois euros.' Luna: Le fromage coûte quatre vingt trois euros. That's a pricey cheese! Lucas: Or you're talking about someone's age. 'Ma grand-mère a quatre vingt cinq ans.' Luna: Ma grand-mère a quatre vingt cinq ans. My grandmother is 85. Cool. Lucas: Let's review all five. Listen and repeat after me: quatre-vingt-un. Luna: Quatre-vingt-un. Lucas: quatre vingt deux. Luna: quatre vingt deux. Lucas: quatre vingt trois. Luna: quatre vingt trois. Lucas: quatre vingt quatre. Luna: quatre vingt quatre. Lucas: quatre vingt cinq. Luna: quatre vingt cinq.
