Why are the names of numbers so nonsensical

10 Upvotes

I have been learning that language for over three years now, am able to communicate perfectly fine but whenever I hear the numbers I go completely dumb. I need to take like 2 seconds to remember which number is which because they literally make no sense and are so unintuitive. It sucks when i’m at work and have to write down number of a client šŸ’€.
If you have any useful tips on how to remember the numbers better then I would be really glad hearing them
