        wut? that’s language. Date order is American. There’s no such thing as English complex or simple or whatever for date orders. But there is British, if that helps you at all.

          On things which have both British English and American English denoted by flag and name American English is often put as “English(simplified)” and British English as just “English”.

          The order of dates has direct interplay with language syntax. January first, 1970 vs the first of January, 1970. It’s characteristic of the dialect of English and its spoken syntax, not just how dates are written.

            If that’s the case, the German should write 143 as 134, since they pronounce it that way, yeah? /s
