minus-squarestress_headache@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up20arrow-down2·11 months agoI’ve never seen “1” written like that. Is it a German thing?
minus-squareamelia@feddit.deOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up20·11 months agoI think it’s a “Europe minus UK” thing, but I don’t know for sure. Pretty certain though that the French write it like that too.
minus-squareGregorGizeh@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up4·11 months agoMaybe they are confusing it with ^ in your writing and don’t realize you’re just writing a regular 1.
minus-squareCanadian_Cabinet @lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up4·11 months agoI’ve never seen it written that way in Spain nor France, so maybe it’s a Germanic language thing?
minus-squaregaael@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·11 months agoIn France we write it both way and AFAIK there is no “recommanded” or “better” way.
minus-squarecasmael@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down4·11 months agoBut then again the French put speech inside these <<>> which is just inconsiderate imo 🤧
minus-squareCanadian_Cabinet @lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up3·11 months agoFunnily enough we have these in Spanish as well, but we don’t use them for dialogue. For that we use a simple line (— or –). We also refer to « » as comillas españolas or Spanish quotations
minus-squarephotonic_sorcerer@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·11 months agoWriting 1 the other way is an american thing.
minus-squaremisophist@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·11 months agoThat’s how we write it in Italy, but northern, so I guess yes, it’s a German thing.
