@cliff900
Is the second floor the one after the ground floor, going up? Or is there another floor (i.e. the first floor) between the second floor and the ground floor?

I have heard there is a difference between American and European usage.

I live in the US and the second floor is considered the floor above the ground floor. In other words, the first floor and the ground floor are the same thing.

Thanks. So I need to do another translation into German and refer to your comment. Great!

I have tried my hand at a second Esperanto translation. I hope you don't object, Chris. Thanks again.
