Nonante, not neuvante but yes. In Switzerland and Québec too if I'm not mistaken.

Ah my mistake, I thought you guys were sensible :P

No, we use quatre-vignt dix (4x20+10), just like the French. If anyone is using octante or huitante, it is not common parlance to say the least.

You mean quatre-vingt, not quatre-vingt-dix right?
