Generally Month Day Year, but I usually avoid confusion by doing June 28th 2023, so that the month and day can't get screwed up. I suppose that is till month day year though.
Oh come on man, it's not just Americans who do the date that way I think...Micronesia does it that too.DazBurger said:
DD-MM-'YY. Yes, even if it's the first of january, I'll write 09-01 instead of 9-1. Years usually in 'YY, except when talking about a year that's not in the 20th or 21st century.
1287536307 (i.e., mmmmmmmmmm)
...or so I wish. I usually use YYYY-MM-DD... and I used to use D/M -YY when I was little. Though, in an english context I'd go with the DD/MM/YYYY format. It makes more sense to me, is more widespread *and* is british.
I'm Swedish, for the record.

When I see XX/YY/ZZZZ I usually interpret the XX as being the day and YY the month, being British. But I often write YYYY/MM/DD, especially on the computer, as then things get put in the proper order when sorted "alphabetically".
YYYY/MM/DD - big endian (most significant part first, like how we write numbers)
DD/MM/YYYY - little endian (least significant part first)
MM/DD/YYYY - messed up (no discernible order)

Day/Month/Year seems like the most logical thing to do. Days make a month, months make a year. I never understood month/day/year though.
