Talk:nineteen

When it says "It is the last/largest of the "teens".", it uses teen in a sense unsupported by teen, for which the closest sense is limited to people.--Prosfilaes 03:10, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

(next word stressed near the first syllable)
Are three syllables "near" enough? Otherwise, "first or second" would be a better wording. Still, does "stressed" referred to a primary stress only? --Backinstadiums (talk) 17:52, 5 August 2020 (UTC)

(next word stressed after the first syllable)
According to the Longman Pronunciation Dictionary, using primary and secondary stresses, ˌnineteen ˌninety-ˈnine. However, it reads "occasionally, when stress-shifted, also /ˈnaɪntən/" --Backinstadiums (talk) 17:56, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
