>I guess it's nnn.nnn,nn? That's the european format, with decimal comma.

nnn nnn[,nn]. Space instead of point so nnn nnn could not be misread as an american format

Its called Denglish. Remember, in german the important part comes at the end. :)

every single fiscal receipt I got has the european number format. Official statistics on the state's website, also compliant. But I've seen elsewhere that various media employ local hackers ..., the hackers are mostly illiterate. They don't even know the number format (sometimes not even the date) of their own country.

Don't ask what they do to german grammar ...
