More differences!

A couple more differences to note here (I'm sure that I'm still forgetting some). First, is that both men and women wear their wedding bands on their right hands. Still on the ring finger, just on the opposite hand. Second, is decimals in numbers. Here instead of a period for a decimal point they use a comma, and where we use a comma they use a period. Example: we would write $1,000.10 for one thousand dollars and ten cents, they would write $1.000,10 (actually I don't think they use this symbol $), but you get the point. It's interesting picking up a carton of 2% milk and it reading 2,0%. Anyway the third thing is dates. Every time you write a date here it is dd/mm/yyyy format. I really confused the lady at the gym when I wrote my birthdate in mm/dd/yyyy format. It read 06/14/1988, and she was really trying to figure out what the 14th month of the year was! Just kidding! =) And the last is the digital clocks. As I said before they use 24hr. time, but instead of going to 24:00, they go to 0:00. I've never seen a zero be the first digit on a clock in the states. Just thought these might be interesting...
