Siebzig is a cardinal number in German. It is formed by combining 'sieben' (seven) with the suffix '-zig' (meaning tens). Note the spelling: 'siebzig' drops the 'en' from 'sieben' before adding '-zig', unlike 'zwanzig' (twenty) which keeps the full 'zwei'. This is a common pattern for tens from 20 to 90. In spoken German, it's often pronounced quickly, with the 'g' at the end sounding like a soft 'ch' (/ç/).
