seventy-eight
After seventy-seven comes
Seventy-eight is the number 78, one more than seventy-seven.
A seventy-eight or 78 is a phonograph record designed to rotate at 78 revolutions per minute, the standard speed before long-playing records emerged in the mid-twentieth century: My grandfather's collection of old 78s sat in the attic for decades.
