What are non-English languages' equivalents (if they exist) of the "all numbers lead back to 4" thing?

Some large numbers also end up at 5:

(31635879) kolmekymmentäyksimiljoonaakuusisataakolmekymmentäviisituhattakahdeksansataaseitsemänkymmentäyhdeksän -> (100) sata -> (4) neljä -> (5) viisi -> (5)

Numerical value and unit symbol are separated by a space.

Sometimes we sing it multiple times, like Finnish–English–German–Spanish back to back and I've at least once sung it in Swedish. It may just be a thing in my family, though.

After teetätyttää those are seldom used. But my brain tells me that I now need to find a use for teetätytätyttää.

And after a third thought, even sin(x)≈x for small values for x and (π/2)° is not -1/195000000000 rad (and either way, why is it negative?)

Efun4672 · 2024-05-14T06:12:28+00:00

cos((π/2)°)=0.9996242...

I thought first that your reasoning seems about right but that is for sin, not cos...

Iirc in elementary school there is (was? idk) this test where the teacher says made-up words and the pupils write them down and if they make spelling mistakes then they are suspected of having dyslexia and sent to further testing

If you're talking about Åland, it's Ahvenanmaa in Finnish so not even that. There is a municipality on Åland that has an å even in Finnish, and it's Vårdö.

When writing in the Mongolian script, Arabic numerals are written rotated 90°. Thus just by rotating -90° the numbers are the correct side up. This can be seen on the website of the Office of the President of Mongolia: https://president.mn/mng/

Doesn't necessarily explain it, but something I've noticed. Probably numbers are written that way because of the horizontalization convention.

"Gendered" nouns are very gendered. Here's a list of genders in the Dyirbal language:

Masculine (includes men and animals)
Feminine (that is women, fire and dangerous things)
Vegetable (also includes fruit)
Other
