Up until not that long ago, this was the "correct" way of counting in Norwegian as well. Ein und zwanzig -> En og tjue. But tjue-en became more and more common, and nobody really cared that hard, so now this is more common. It's still a bit of a mix of both depending who you talk to. Some, me included, use both.
