Well if you can count to ten in mandarin, you can count to 100.
It’s literally 5 10 2, 5 10 3 for 52, 53 etc.
Add one more word for hundreds, one more for thousands.
After that it gets tough cause numbers beyond thousands are split by packs of 10 thousands, not hundred thousands like most western world (I guess).

Yes, doubling characters or numbers is common in Chinese to insist on the item.
At weddings, you will see lots of double happiness characters for example.
“Everybody” is literally the character for people that is repeated, so “yan yan”.
I like to use https://searx.neocities.org/ It randomises your search across several searx instances. It’s not always reliable as some instances are sometimes down or exceed request limit. But retrying often works. Worst case i use mojeek or ddg
German, Cantonese, mandarin, English, French.
