I still don’t know if it goes ground floor, second floor or ground floor, first floor, second floor

    I think it depends on the convention used in each country, so there isn’t one global correct answer.

    In Britain the convention is Ground, 1st Floor, 2nd Floor.

      TIL. Living in the states I thought the answer is obviously that the ground floor and first floor are synonymous.

      Agreed. For the other side of the Atlantic, it is ground or 1st floor, 2nd floor.

        Makes sense, I’m in Quebec and that’s what feels right to me but I didn’t realize it was different elsewhere, it explains my confusion in Internet conversations
