Have you noticed?
1 - one
2 - two
3 - three
...
9 - nine
10 - ten
11 - eleven
12 - twelve (A DOZEN)
13 - thirteen
Why does the way we name numbers in english change after twelve?
A dozen dozen? We have a word for that, a gross. An hour? 60 minutes, or 5 dozen minutes.
We were always meant to count in base 12. It's a conspiracy; I know you see it too. The truth cannot be silenced forever.
