What do you mean, that's how they're spelled First Second Third Fourth etc?

What I want to know is why English people pronounce Sixth like Sickth rather than Sicksth

dutch lesson for you guys

this is how we say 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th


1st = Eerste

2nd = Tweede

3rd = Derde

4th = Vierde

5th = Vijfde

6th = Zesde

7th = Zevende

8th = Achtste

9th = Negende

10th = Tiende


----------
for example

our parliament exists out of ''eerste kamer'' ''tweede kamer'' = 1st house of commons, 2nd house of commons, of which 2nd house of commons is the most important one

It's a bit similar to the German number system isn't it Nicky?
