Byblical Hebrew has numbers in "two and twenty" format (including things like "fifty and hundred"), but in modern Hebrew they are pronounced similarly to English, including special exceptions for 11-19 and using Million->Billion (Milliard allowed as well)->Trillion rather than Million->Milliard->Billion->Billiard; And not including the "thirty five hundred" oddity, in Hebrew that's "Three thousands five hundred".
