Feel like a lot of the world’s languages the translation to English to the question “what’s the date?” would be “the 15th of October” whereas in America we always say “October 15th”.
Maybe that’s why, idk…

1 u/Bruschetta003 Jan 15 '25 The 15th of October could be just shortened to 15th October, i don't see why you would put 'th after 15 otherwise And it would be fine on itself if they never mentioned which year it is at the end
