Traditional Chinese: 九十 (ninety) / 九十歲 (ninety yrs old)
Simplified Chinese:  九十 (ninety) / 九十岁 (ninety yrs old)
Korean: 구십 (ninety) / 구십 년 전에 (ninety yrs old)
  (or)  아흔 (ninety) / 아흔 년 전에 (ninety yrs old)

(First line is Chinese derived number and second line is Korean number,
I'm not sure which one is used more frequently to describe age -- I just
started learning Korean anyway)
