Ah, that's pretty interesting. It makes sense when you read the two phrasings next to each other, but it does seem like a pretty subtle wording difference. I think in practice people tend to differentiate which one is meant by context more than by "degrees Celsius" versus "Celsius degrees" being used consistently. Should Google should convert the query somehow? It seems like adding two temperatures in degrees Celsius…
They should convert the query because that’s exactly what people want to know when they type in those kinds of queries.
Ahh, yes. The "do what I mean" feature.
