I’m not a native speaker but I’m pretty sure you’re using that esset (ß) incorrectly. The esset is used when you have a pair of esses next to each other, whereas “dreizig” is always spelled with a Z to the best of my knowledge (like sechtzig at the end)
Its SZ, or sharp S. Eszett is how the german pronounciation of SZ would be written out. “Esset” would be used to encourage a group of people to eat a meal.
ß isnt used when you have a pair of s letters next to each other. Its most commonly used if you have long vowels beforehand. See “Trasse” vs “Straße”. Edit: “Phase” has also a long vowel but the “s” is pronounced less sharp…
Dreißig with “z” is wrong. If you cant be bothered to use “ß” on a non-german keyboard just using “ss” is completly fine. Because of the long vowels beforehand compared to zwanzig, vierzig, fünfzig, etc…

Perhaps worth adding that we had a spelling reform in 1996, which kind of put this rule in place.
If you learned German before then or had a teacher who learned it before then, it’s possible that you got taught it the old way…
Fair. „Dreißig“ is quite an outlier.
But wouldn’t it be boring, if the rules didn’t have exceptions?
But also, the way our constant writing reforms are going, I wouldn’t be too surprised, if, at some point, „dreizig“ becomes the correct spelling. In some dialects, it’s already spoken more as a ‘z’ than a ‘ß’.
Then again, I’m still mad at how they massacred the spelling of reflection.

Dreißig is correct, trust me, i am a german guy.
Fiiiine, but I’m gonna complain about it
