minus-square@RememberTheApollo_link-3•edit-26 days agoExcept in Spain they use “PB”, which makes even less sense unless you know it’s planta baja. It’d be better if there were a zero. At least the English use “0” or “G”.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•6 days agoG doesn’t make sense either unless you know it means “ground”. It goes both ways
minus-square@ZeffSydelink3•6 days agoYeah, even in the US ‘G’ can mean ‘Garage’ in some buildings, which may be the ground floor or the first sub-floor. Then you can have ‘L’ for Lobby, but in some cases it means Lower. Jane? Get me off this crazy thing.
