Is that not the format that’s actually used in the US? I mean, it’s utterly insane, but a lot of people really are used to having the components of the date in random order.
In what way is the MDY you write about any different from the YDM in the screenshot? The important thing, that they’re in random order, is the same for both, right?
And as for spoken language, it’s not like any normal person would say “September fifteenth” now, is it?
Turns out people in different countries and regions say the date differently as well. I find it funny how everyone always assumes their experience is the universal one.
September Fifteenth and Fifteenth of September are both commonly used depending where you are in the world.

nope, we use the format that matches the words spoken so Friday September 15th, 2023 would be Fri 9/15/2023 sometimes the year is shortened
take into account that your “words spoken” isn’t necessarily how other say it. For me, saying 15th of july of 2023 sounds way more natural in english.
I wonder if they have a special rule to use dd/mm/yyyy on the 4th of July.
Nope, it’s “July 4th” or “the 4th of July” though and they’re weirdly interchangeable
When is independence day?
us independence day is on July 4th, don’t really see how this is relevant to the conversation?

they are not in a random order they are in the same order as when spoken in proper American english
and yes normal people do say September fifteenth none of this fifteen September British nonsense
Literally nobody in Britain says ‘fifteen September’…
True we say 15th September, not 15 September
