I have no idea how one could find this out.
I don’t know in English, but in Spanish the word for five, Cinco, has five letters.
I was able to come up with a list of similar scenarios for various languages using a simple formula in LibreOffice Calc:
=LEN(A2)=ROW(A2)-1(row 1 being a header row)Language Word Digit Danish To 2 Danish Tre 3 Danish Fire 4 Dutch Vier 4 English Four 4 Finnish Viisi 5 French N/A N/A German Vier 4 Indonesian N/A N/A Italian Tre 3 Norwegian To 2 Norwegian Tre 3 Norwegian Fire 4 Polish N/A N/A Portuguese Cinco 5 Spanish Cinco 5 Swedish Tre 3 Swedish Fyra 4 Turkish Dört 4 In Hungarian, it’s “négy”, but it’s actually only three letters, n, é and gy.
This is a clever solution
二 (pronounced and romanized to “ni”) is 2 in Japanese and has two letters kinda
Same with 三(San)
We getcha but that’s romaji which is a transliteration of the syllable sounds.
Yeah, but saying 一 has one Kanji and is One would be the only candidate and that’s a little boring :p
two to power of four = 16
Beautiful.
-9 (minus nine) kind of works if we’re getting desperate.
“Negative Fifteen” and “Negative Seventeen” also work in the same way
But negative fifteen has 15 letters, not -15
neetfif evitagen has -15 letters, but i dont think its a number
Excellent
Nice. I like.
The number one hundred million sixty six thousand five hundred seventy three has exactly 100,066,537 letters.
Wait a minute…
Flive has flive letters.
How about strokes? 一，二，三 😆
Sorry but whenever I see this symbols only thing I can think of CFT(d-orbital splitting). Because one time I asked my friend about CFT he used this symbols.
was not expecting cft

The answer to your question is zero yet at this he same time zero is not an answer to your question.
sephene
Whatever that is, I’d assume it’s a bad idea to drink it.
It’s the only one in English unless you allow things like “The absolute value of -20”.
No, but cinco has 5, lol.
No. As a matter of fact, this is a neat party trick I used to use.
Start with literally any number, and count the letters to match it. You will always end up at four because it’s the only English word and Arabic numeral represented with equivalent letters.
“party’”
hmmm
Okay, it was my neat math class trick. I was a lame nerd, you caught me… My calculus teacher thought it was cool okay??? Lol
Stand up maths did a video on this 8 years ago. https://youtu.be/LYKn0yUTIU4
ITT: lots of people who misunderstood a clever but badly-phrased question.
I think the answer is no. It would only be possible with very small numbers. Even by the time you’ve reached 100, it’s not going to happen again.
