Does each language have "lefty loosey righty tighty"?
Does each language have "lefty loosey righty tighty"?
The world has a lot of different standards for a lot of things, but I have never heard of a place with the default screw thread direction being opposite.
So does each language have a fun mnemonic?

In Dutch we have DROL, Dicht recht, open links. So close right, open left as a very strict translation. But DROL is also Dutch for turd.
A droll factoid.
Never heard of that, I just remembered from my dad that clockwise is tight and counterclockwise is loose.
Same here, except for my dad, he is clumsy as hell.
Huh, I always say links los, rechts rotsvast
Edit: or, this: links verlost, rechts rekent in
