@wonka @cobbpg @mina and writing I’m sure it works but I can’t think of saying it verbally.

“on the 15th of May 1967”
“in 1967 on May the 15th”

The first version is my default when speaking.

@peterbrown @wonka @mina In Hungarian it’s the only way you can say it: month first, then day. That’s simply how that language works. I just think it’s better because you don’t have to deviate from the natural way to make dates sortable. The same applies to names: they are family name first.
