lol! that sucks!Me too! For some reason, any software you buy or register in Canada defaults to US English, so when I spell "neighbour" the proper, Canadian way, I end up with that stupid red squiggle.
I dunno tho... 2012 = 2000 + 12, therefore... two thousand and twelve.lol! that sucks!
I am looking up if the proper way to say two thousand, twelve is as all my math professors drilled into me. Or if that is just US math. Seeing as how math speak is fairly consistent, it may be one of the few times that the US pronunciation is "correct" over the UK
I will, till the day I die, say that when you say "and" in a number (years in dates are numbers, after all), you are verbally denoting a frippin' decimal
Canadians put all the proper letters in colour, etc? YAY!![]()
