  • That's the way you were taught. It is not proper English. Thus, incorrect in this context.

  • Really? Proper English? You do know English as a language started in the UK right? And that in the UK, the common date format is dd/mm/yy? I'd say I'm not the one doing it wrong.

    In [i]proper[/i] English, you say the month, day then the year. You then write it down as it is said. And I know how it's done in other parts of the world. I'm not some ignorant fool such as yourself. I've actually traveled to different areas to study other cultures. You think I got my name from an American??

  • And how am I supposed to know this is your real name? Or did you think my parents named me Scythe NL? Yes, when you SAY the date IN ENGLISH, you say the month first, but in this topic it was written down as numbers, not as spoken. Also my '1 januari 2015' was in response to 'you would say/you would not say' to which I responded with what I would ACTUALLY say. And yes, I travel. So do you, good for you. Have fun on your travels

    Yes. So I write 2 januari 2015. Period. Or, 02/01/2014 in date format.

    You are a thick headed moron. You don't say "one January two thousand fifteen." You DO say "January first, two thousand fifteen." Thus, it is written; 02/01/2015 or 2/1/15 Even more reasoning: When looking on a calendar, what's the first thing you have to find? The month. THEN the day. And don't even bother saying year, because the year is irrelevant since there is only one year on a calendar.
