We say the day/month/year like today is 12/05/13
No idea why Americans had to change this???
It's because when we say the date, we generally say "May 12th, 2013" so that's 5/12/13. Of course there are the weirdos among us who say "the 12th of May, 2013".
Like on checks and stuff, for the date, I write "May 12, 2013", and from that, it makes perfect sense to write "5/12/13".

cheaper = lower-priced, so cheaper prices = lower price prices
"If it's not true, dear," was all the sense I could make of it for years.
And please, when it comes to nesting quotes, can't we all agree to use the double quote ["] on the outside? 😵
