    The way I see it, the US just writes it the way it’s spoken. “August 9th, 2023” vs. “the 9th of August, 2023”.

        That is indeed how many Americans say it.

      That also doesn’t make a lot of sense though, does it. In my language, the day comes first. Also when spoken.

      No, the US just chose this order and speaks it the same way. I don’t speak it this way, you’re just used to it (just like everyone is to the way they speak it)
