1000 touches.
In french :-)
!remindme sixty years when i confirm
what about thirmty three
Mine touch at pebenty peben.
And then they touch for every number until 1 trillion
they do if u kiss me
They do if you kiss yourself in the mirror, but only on the lips
You can only kiss your lips in the mirror
Wise man once said.
Another thought to disturb restful slumber, especially if you are vain: in a mirror you can kiss yourself only on the lips.
Geez, how many accounts does Neil have here…
One point five… d’oh!

Made me silently count to ten to confirm. Mind expanded.
I’m still counting
I love this! It doesn’t seem like it could possibly be true, but my 30 seconds of testing haven’t debunked it.
Fümf
Lies.
Sieben
Fem :(
Kolme - that’s 3 in Finnish
Sieben
Siem
Portuguese: 1 (um)
Is this this case in Brasil? In european portuguese your lips don’t touch for um
En, to, tre, fire, fem.
1000000 / 5 = 200000
Here’s the proof that Danish is 200.000 times better than English.
As long as you have that ridiculous “to og en halvfjers” counting system, you do not have a superior system 😉
Haha! Yeah truth be told, our number system is completely stupid 😂
In romanian, it ends at 4. Romanian is 25% better than dutch and 250000 times better than english
250000 times better than english
That’s a very low bar tho
Speaking as a fellow Dane, I reject your “touch lips quickly while counting” criteria for language quality, especially since English is much more versatile and universally useful for communication and thus better 😁
that’s one hell of a water bill if you were in the shower counting to one million.
Not if you count using a logarithmic base 10 scale!
Just yell 10! and you’ve counted way further already
When the thoughts get so deep you turn the water off and just stand there.
Found the american.
It applies to any English-speaking country, which makes sense since it’s written in English.
I only have to count to 5
fem?
Ja
Don’t laugh at him it’s not nice.
same, but it’s pet (five)
In English, my lips touch when I make the “f” sound at the start of four. I am also pretty sure they touch for one.
Nope, for me my bottom teeth touch my upper lips.
The F sound is usually a labialdental fricative in English. So you are putting your bottom lip on your teeth and letting some air go by to make the F sound.
English has bilabial plosives where you touch both lips together and let air stop for a moment which makes the P or B sounds.
English doesn’t have a bilabial fricative so you might be doing this in your dialect and it doesn’t stand out to anyone because it doesn’t otherwise have a phonetic meaning. But, interestingly, in other languages a bilabial fricative has distinct meaning from a labial dental fricative. I believe I’ve read that in Japanese the “F” in “Mount Fuji” is actually a bilabial fricative and not the normal F that English speakers use.
I meant to say upper teeth to bottom lip, not the other way around.
My upper teeth touch my bottom lip when I do.
Whoops, that’s what I meant. Me too.
I cover my bottom teeth with my bottom lip at the start so the lips touch on ‘four’
I’m not sure about this. The only way I can make my lips touch when saying that number is if I actually say pour.
