Norway as well. 90+9 is the official way, 9+90 is the way from when the Germans occupied the country. Both are still used. The map also says Georgia and Finland also use two variations.

The Finnish colloquial variation on the map – ysiysi – is "nine nine"

I thought ni og nitti was just favoured by people who use nynorsk.

It's favored by people over 60 and those who have parents that use it constantly, basically.
