I wonder if any of these are considered sentences.
If so, in what context would they be used?

eng
By a hundred.
fra
Par centaine.
epo
po cent
deu
Zu Hunderten.

Hi, CK!!!

I can see someone in a factory yelling this to order the quantity of batch that needs processing. Now I wonder why twelve is a big deal? Why do we buy things by the dozen?

Hi, Eccles17. This is not a complete sentence. Incomplete sentences are sometimes used in real life. I'm not sure this means we should allow them on Tatoeba. We could end up with many sentence fragments that are not really useful.

Agreed. Metadata can help filter them if need be.

Human input is very valuable.

Somebody will have a brilliant idea on how to use this data. Scholars, too, will be interested.
