    In English its standard to write it as $1.5B. You could be from Quebec or Europe? But then I might expect 1,5B$. Shrug.

      European. Noggie, to be specific. I’ve given up on remembering which to use as decimal point when typing english, but context usually makes it clear.

          Yes, but I heard somewhere recently that it’s (mildly) derogatory. I guess that’s our N-word. It’s only offensive if you say it.
