Living in a country that does this, it is very confusing.
- jeroenhd 4y agoThe comma is used as a decimal separator in almost all European countries, with only English-speaking countries, Liechtenstein, and Switzerland using the full stop. Luxembourg uses both, confusingly, but in Europe people using the full stop as a decimal separator are the odd one out. I find long versus short scale for numbers like billion vs milliard a lot more confusing. I also would have a hard time adjusting to the lakh/crore system used elsewhere in the world. The decimal separator, though? That's just applying reason. Fuel prices may be high right now but they definitely haven't increased a thousandfold.
