Please stop putting the dollar sign after the number, y’all! Yes, I know that’s how you say it.

[–] Zwiebel@feddit.org 2 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

What if it's CAD or AUD

I put another 5$ this guy won't as well

[–] Robert7301201@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 hours ago (4 children)

What's the argument for having it before the number?

I actually kind of like it written that way because it follows the standard for other units. It should be quantity and then unit. 50 m. 0°C. 50%. 2:00 PM.

You yourself recognize that that's the way we say it, and even write it out long form. 50 dollars.

Sure, historically, $50 has been the correct way to write it, but language changes. Why not make a change that makes English more consistent?

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 hours ago

Some places like it both ways. In Japan if you write ¥100 it goes before, but if you use the other local symbol it goes after, as in 100円.

[–] 0x0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I take issue with the claim that % and PM are units.

[–] Robert7301201@slrpnk.net 1 points 53 minutes ago

I will cocede PM is not a unit, but % is at least an honoray unit of measurement based on how it's used [1].

Time is weird. A duration has a unit associated with it, seconds, minutes, hours, but an absolute time doesn't. That is unless we're using an epoch. I could say today started at 1788652800 seconds if we're using unix epoch.

I guess that's because time is a coordinate system. 2 PM is designating a specific point in that coordinate system. There's no origin (unless epoch specified), so we can't have an absolute measurement, so we don't have units associated with it. PM just feels similar to a unit because it is part of a coordinate system.

The other poster is likely from the US. Nothing is consistent in the US.

[–] daychilde@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

Because as soon as you see $50, you know it's money. With 50$ you have to read the fifty and then figure out what it is 50 of.

You can disagree with that, as your comment already does, I'm just answering the why.

[–] 0x0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 5 hours ago (5 children)

Please stop putting the apostrophe between ya and ll

[–] starik@lemmy.today 1 points 1 hour ago

Thank you! Fixed

[–] Gutek8134@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Ya will not tolerate that. Ya wants to be able to shorten will to 'll like the humans are allowed to.

[–] PizzaLamp25@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Why y'all want me to do that for - Texas

[–] MajorMajormajormajor@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 hours ago

How else am I supposed to abbreviate "Ya ill"?

The above paragraph isn't in standard readable English, but it presents an iron clad case for why you should follow language conventions in most cases. If you can't read it, that's a skill issue.
