I can only speak for myself, but I know Denmark uses stueetage (Living room floor) for the ground floor and the floor above that is the 1st floor, every place I’ve been to in Germany that I can think of had Erdgeschoss (Literally ground floor) or Parterre (I dont actually know what that means) and the floor above that is Ersteschoss or Ersteetage (First floor), and Italians use “Piano terra” (Ground floor) and then “Primo piano” (First floor) as far as I know.
But i am no expert and never paid it much mind before so I could be wrong.

i was just thinking of elevator buttons actually (1, 2, 3 vs G/E, 2, 3 vs G, 1, 2), I don’t know what words are much used in daily conversation
Oh you can’t use elevator buttons for anything. I’ve seen S (Stue/Ground floor), B (Basement), and P (Parking) on one of those.
