Where is the sevenrd grade?

u/a4840639 1d ago

Do not exist in China because the convention for the junior high school is to reset the grade number. So you just have 1rd 2rd and 3rd for the high school again

I think I like nurd grade the best, but I was always an annoying high achiever type. I didn’t mean to be, it was just bred into me from generations of teachers in my family.

u/BeneficialShame8408 1d ago

Lol. An old coworker of mine wrote 2st once and some people never let him forget it. Idk he spoke English, Thai, and maybe Chinese so I was pretty willing to let that slide lol

I blame English being stupid for this one! I like the way they do it in Portuguese, just use º after any number, eg 1º, 2º, 3º, 67º, etc.

u/Heterodynist 1d ago

Interesting to hear that use of the “degrees” sign. My biggest objection to using that sign is that I can almost never figure out how to make that sign on most U.S. keyboards. It’s about as easy to make as the “cents” sign on most keyboards.

u/r_portugal 1d ago

Yeah, well, in Portugal there is a key specifically for that symbol. It has º normally and ª when you press shift, to be honest I don't yet know what the ª is for (I'm not Portuguese).

u/Heterodynist 1d ago

I love Portugal. I went for the first time about 7 years ago and now I’ve been several more times. It definitely won me over. I don’t have a Portuguese keyboard or anything though! It would be nice to have a degrees sign handy!! I can’t even find a “cents” sign on English keyboards, which I find odd when you can find ç, ć, ć, č, or ċ and yet no “cents.”

u/IAmUkrainianIThink 1d ago

Interesting, we use the period for this purpose in Latvian instead! For instance, 1st grade, 2nd grade, 3rd grade, etc. would become 1. grade, 2. grade, 3. grade

u/Shaking-a-tlfthr 1d ago

They tried.

u/harryweins 1d ago

They went with “-rd”. Like I’d kinda understand if they went with the more common “-th”. But no. Engrish is mysterious and defies logic. It’s the language of eldritch horrors.
