+# Note on French spelling
+
+Due to a 1990 orthographic reform, there are currently two conventions for written French numbers:
+
+1. **Reformed** All composite words are joined by a hyphen: 
+e.g. `1122 -> mille-cent-vingt-deux`
+
+2. **Traditional** Hyphenation only occurs (with exception) for numbers from 17 to 99 (inclusive):
+e.g. `1122 -> mille cent vingt-deux`
+
+As available training data for upstream ASR will vary in use of convention, NeMo's French ITN accomodates either style for normalization e.g.
+
+```
+	python inverse_normalize.py "mille-cent-vingt-deux" --language="fr"  --> 1122
+	python inverse_normalize.py "mille cent vingt-deux" --language="fr"  --> 1122
+```
+
+As a result, there exists some ambiguity in the case of currency conversions, namely minor denominations of the dollar e.g.
+
+```
+	300 -> "trois-cents" # Reformed spelling
+	300 -> "trois cents" # Traditional spelling
+	3 ¢ -> "trois cents" # Valid for both
+```
+
+Cardinals take priority in such cases. 
+
+```
+python inverse_normalize.py "trois cents" --language="fr" -> 300
+```
