minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish4•11 months agoEighth final? But it doesn’t exist, I don’t think
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink6•11 months agoNot common in English, no. Quite common in some European languages tho
minus-squareLysollinkfedilink4•11 months agoYup, we say åttondelsfinal in Swedish which means just that.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•11 months agoSame in Norway, except we spell it properly.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish3•11 months agoBut it’s the round of 16, because there are 16 teams.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•edit-211 months agoI think there’s supposed to be an s at the end, as in eights. To follow the logic of semis, quarters, eights. But that’s rare in English. Most just call it round of 16
Sometimes, the round of 8.
Eighth final? But it doesn’t exist, I don’t think
