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.
