A question for native speakers of #English:
In German, when estimating (or charging for) the time a certain business project takes, we often use the units "Personenstunde" (PS, "person hour") and especially "Personentag" (PT, "person day"). This differs from calendar days in that you can do 5 PT of work in one day if five people are working on it.
Is there an equivalent term in English? Does it have an acronym? Is the gendered "man-day" still the default?
