A common mistake made in Indian schools is to think that the times tables are said with the word "za" or "zaa". In reality there is no such word. Za is actually "s are"
So 2 2 za 4 is actually 2 2s are 4
So 2 2 za 4 is actually 2 2s are 4
Usage
In reality it is:
2 2's are 4
3 2's are 6
4 2's are 8
5 2's are 10
6 2's are 12
2 2's are 4
3 2's are 6
4 2's are 8
5 2's are 10
6 2's are 12
