I'd look for a key.

What date is 9/11/9?
2022/08/18 or 2022-08-18 is unambiguous. ISO order & logical compared to any other measurement (H, m, s or degrees, min, sec or Stones, pounds & ounces). Only the USA uses mm dd yy, or mm dd yyyy everyone else with 2 digit years uses dd mm yy and yyyy mm dd or dd mm yyyy but without some other info you can't always tell if it's less than the 13th.

If there is a standard for the order of dimensions few use it. Sensible documents put the order as well as the data.
