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

    I’m pretty sure that format or where the first floor is labeled 1 is the most common where I live.

    Labeling the second floor the first floor is frankly insane.

    Edit: or maybe we do call the second floor the first floor. Not sure. Still stupid though but it’s not as stupid in my language because we don’t say “floor” but if you’re going to say floor you should count the actual floors.

      Not stupid in the slightest.

      Basement -1

      Ground 0

      First floor 1

      Second floor 2

      It makes sense to me, but it’s also what I’m used to.

        The ground floor has the first floor in the building though.
