这是一个英国人关于引进中国数学书的评论：
Following that logic the Germans would have to be far behind us because for them the number 327495 is “three hundred seven and twenty thousand four hundred five and ninety”. It occasionally still causes me to stumble mentally even after deades of living here but not them: even fairly uneducated Germans seem to cope with it — just as well as we in fact cope with “fifteen” and so on. (Don’t you?) And what about the French with their “four twenties eleven” for 91? I think we have to look elsewhere for our problems.
对法国人而言原来91是4个20和11。
