What is the capital of Tunisia?

Nombres avec suffixe autrement que 1er, 2e, 2de,

There is the same principle for quantities, with “aine” for sufix :

douzaine (dozen) : 12aine
, quinzaine (fifteen or so) 15aine
, and all tens : 10aine, 20aine, 30aine…

100aine is the only hundred to be written this way

Edit : soixante-dizaine (70aine), quatre-vingtaine (80aine) and quatre-vingt-dizaine (90aine) are very rarely used.

In a completely different context, you may encounter some suffixes in street numbers, such as :

5bis, 5ter, 5quater…

Typically, these cases happen for formerly bigger properties that were divided later:

| — 3 — | — — 5 — — | — 7 — |

becomes

| — 3 — | — 5 — | -5bis- | — 7 — |
