I realize making fun of the imperial measurement system is a great internet pastime, but almost everything in America has measurements in both imperial and metric on the packaging. The can of soda I'm looking at says 12 fl oz, and then in parentheses it says 355 ml.
You get that a lot in Germany and the grave accent too, as with "Rosi`s" in the article image. I guess the acute accent is laziness because unlike the apostrophe, it doesn't need the shift key on a standard German keyboard layout. The grave accent is at shift+´ so just weird.
This was my show as a kid, the one my parents had to get us back home in time to watch or else much stroppiness would occur. I haven't heard it for many years, but the opening notes of the theme tune made me grin ear to ear.
