Pointing out errors with apostrophes or commas is an immediate blocking offence, btw.

But you don't say the day before the month, unless you're a dandy or a Frenchman.

Can you expound on your premise? Are your referencing Danish vs. whatever the hell the rest of the world uses?
-
The correct order is day/month/year because that's how the British do it.
-
I really don't like the year/month/date We should be able to agree that that is the real threat to Western Liberal Society. ISO 8601 be damned. What use is saving some space in a line of code when democracy dies a little more on the inside!

Nowhere near as confusing as trying to work out how much something costs over there! Why on Earth is tax not included in the price?!
-
What?!
-
Oh just you wait. You buy anything over there and it always costs more than it says on the ticket. They add a hidden tax of some kind.

Why would you write the day first if you don’t say it that way?
-
We do. What date is it? 1st of February, 2018.
-
February 1st is just more efficient.
-

Saying the month first is like saying 1.05 as "point zero five, and one". -
You Brits are hilarious, I love you guys, with your messed up dates, and your extra letters. Now I have to look up where we do it this way. Thanks for giving me a homework assignment,

Maybe the Brits can stop leaving us with pronunciations they later change/regret. ;)
-
