Note; As in every country, you hear different accents in France depending on where you are. French people have different ways of saying numbers. The difference is very subtle, if you can hear it that's very good!
I wrote the pronounciation here as always; the pronounced letters are underlined and the silent final letters are crossed. If you have to link the words, you'll see that; "_".
Now, hear the frog and pay attention. The frog tends to pronounce the "n", while I would pronounce the "t", but again it's just a question of accents. But then, the frog doesn't say "vinn neuf", he says "vint neuf". So, both ways are corect. You can say vint-deu, vint-katr, vintseink, vint-seess... or vinn-deu, vinn-katr, vinn-seess...
