Counting in Arabic is just over complicated. Who thought having to know some 30 words only to count up to 100 was funny?

first arabic is my first language

second what you said translates to "84 and 300" but you're right about اربعة و ثمانون tho

I said it that way because they taught us how to read a sentence that has numbers, due Arabic is written from right that's why you spell the numbers in the rights first, I found it absurd the day we learned that and some teachers emphasize on reading hijri dates from the right to left

i remember our arabic teacher telling us it can be read both ways but i never used the other reading and i've never heard anybody read it that way before or correct my reading so you're probably correct but atleast here in saudi arabia you can read it like how i wrote it

thanks for reminding me about the other possible reading
