Hi philologist

It is indeed "five". You have to know that Brenda is Eyespeak for our own dear queen (God bless her), whose strangulated vowels render "five" as "faive" (sort of), which is fairly close to the way most of her subjects pronounce "fave", a dated synonym for preferred.

Best wishes

Thank you, Helveticus! That explains the "why."
