COMMENTS

Standard German orthography; a letter with an umlaut or ß is counted as a single letter: e.g., 30 maps to length("dreißig") = 7.
There are ambiguities from n=100 on, since both, "hundert" and "einhundert" are equally valid and common. The same applies for 1000 with "tausend" or "eintausend". - M. F. Hasler, Nov 03 2013
In contrast to English (A005589 vs A052360) and French (A007005 vs A167507), there are no spaces or other punctuation in German names for numbers, until 10^6 = "eine Million". - M. F. Hasler, Sep 20 2014
There also appears to be an ambiguity on whether there is an 's' in the middle of 101*10^3, "(ein)hundertein(s)tausend". - M. F. Hasler, Apr 08 2023

In applications where this is not suitable, the special characters below can be replaced, e.g., with "ae, oe, ue, ss" or "a, o, u, s". [M. F. Hasler, Jul 05 2024] */
