Fun fact and why you might be wrong

1 + 2 = 091120

0+9+1+1+2=10+3=13=1+3=4

4 + 9 = 20240923

2+0+2+4+0+9+2+3 =10+9+3= 22=2+2=4

but your is 27=2+7=9

@sstimson :I didn't notice that ,good observation :)

Some Hints (if needed):
Spoiler:
Maybe it has something to do with alphabets
Spoiler:
Maybe the number of digits in the right hand side mean something

To keep this going and a little thinking

I was think so a second that maybe you on the longer right number side were spelling out the left side answer

and while it somewhat works for the first if you leave out the vowels but not for the second

Also I found a number pattern that works great for the first and also the second but the end 23 prevents that idea from working

Back to do some more thinking.

I didn't think this would be this confusing.
Another hint ,
Spoiler:
Try adding after rewriting the numbers on the left.

I think it would be easier if i rewrite the question like
Spoiler:
1 + 2 = ikt
4 + 9 = txiw

Also, hello Everyone ^_^

Maybe it is time to end this. Now I see what you are doing and Borealis I choice you as a proxy to make the next puzzle
Spoiler:
first this
1=one=o-15,n-14,e-5
next
2=two=t-20,w-23,0-15
last for the first
1+2=one+two=15+20,14+23,5+15=35,37,20
then covert to letters by removing 26 if necessary
35-26=9,37-26=11, and 20 stays 20
and thus the answer 09 11 20

I will let you do the second example, time for the final one
3+7=three+seven=20,08,18,5,5 and 19,5,22,5,14
20+19,8+5,18+22,5+5,5+14=39,13,40,10,19
39-26=13,40-26=14
so the answer should be 13 13 14 10 19 or in letters mmnjs
By the way the 4 pattern is kinda of broken

as it adds up to 69 which is 15
but if instead of adding you subtract, it stays 4 (5-1=4)
