Is there a country that uses the dollar sign that puts it after the number?
Not a country, but Quebec does place the dollar sign after the amount.
Hah, that makes sense.
That's so stereotypically French.
So many lol. There's lots of ways numbers are formatted across locales https://cldr.unicode.org/translation/number-currency-formats/number-and-currency-patterns
I'm well aware that there are many different ways to format numbers and currencies - that's why I asked specifically about those that use the dollar sign.
Ah, I see. It's moreso like "people from this location put currency symbols after numbers" not specifically dollar signs. Like, we put currency symbols before the numbers in American English eg "Oh, that's $12.00" or "Oh, that's €12.00." A german, writing in dutch, would write "Oh, das sind 12,00 $" or "Oh, das sind 12,00 €." Many more countries do this like Poland, the Netherlands I think, etc. It's pretty common. But like the other user said, in Quebec specifically (because French lol) since they use the canadian dollar and the canadian dollar is $ for them (though, in the US we just use CAD instead, so we'd write CAD 12.00 in america whereas a canadian would write $12.00 in canada for the same currency)
