minus-square@TempermentalAnomaly@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink2•edit-27 months agoSo my Chinese is pretty distant from actual usage, but when did 906 stop being 九百六？
minus-square@ammonium@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink4•7 months agoIn spoken language 九百六 isn’t 906 but 960 ( shortened version of 九百六十), 906 is 九百零六.
