発音

• IPA: /ˈtwɛntiˈθɹiː/
• 韻: -iː
• ハイフネーション: twen‧ty‧three

語源 1

From 中期英語 twenty-thre, twenti-thre, twenti-thrie, twenty-thrie, ultimately derived from 古期英語 þrēo and twēntiġ (“twenty-three”, literally “three and twenty”); see also three-and-twenty. The reason for the numerical swap across the spellings for all English numbers is unknown, but it may have been influenced by the Old French system, i.e. see vint trois (literally “twenty three”). By surface analysis, twenty (“the cardinal number 20, occurring after nineteen and before twenty-one”) +‎ three (“the cardinal number 3, occurring after two and before four”).
