Fact - Le fait
In French there is no number seventy, they simply say soixante-dix, which means sixty-ten. So then you need to count soixante-onze (sixty-eleven) and so on until you get to 80. Then for eighty you need to say quatre-vingt, which means four twenties. Which makes ninety very interesting indeed. It is quatre-vingt-dix (four twenties and ten!). So learning to count in French is easy up to 59 and then you have to remember some special numbers.
Did you have a look at the cartoon yet? Maybe you noticed that the word bleu changes to bleus when we describe 3 elephants. In French, adjectives [words used to describe something] must agree with the noun [naming word] they are describing. So here the word éléphants is plural [there is more than one] so we add an s - the same rule applies to the adjective bleu we need to add an -s to make it agree with éléphants.
Un éléphant blanc marche devant, un éléphant vert marche derrière, trois éléphants bleus marchent au milieu.
