MODERATORS
I (german speaking part of switzerland) actually did learn it this way (90+2, nonante-deux) when learning french in school, in addition to 80 (huitante). Though we were told about the french way 420 and 420+10 etc.
Oh? "huitante" instead of "octante" ?
EDIT: Checked on Wikipedia, both are valid in Switzerland and Acadia (Nova Scotia) but "octante" is older and tend to be abandoned
