"Five-and-twenty" seems to be the proper order for verbalizing numbers in most languages I can think of - fünfundzwanzig in German, as keberoxu mentioned.
And in Spanish, Veinticinco o Veinte y cinco.....

Oh, well, back to the drawing board.

Google Translate will prove my initial theory wrong in many languages.
