Input: Consider Input: "Le onze Septembre Francais" declared the banner headline in France's Le Monde newspaper. "A French September 11th."
But now France also has 1/11, another set of numbers etched in the annals of the terrible history of terrorism and stirring stories of people who fight back.
Nearly four million took to the streets and squares across France on Sunday 11 January for a Unity march in the wake of three days of terror that left 17 dead, and a nation saddened, stunned, and - it is hoped - strengthened in a new solidarity.
Never have so many French citizens turned out in such large numbers since the liberation of Paris from Nazi Germany in 1944.
"I'm proud of my country," reflects French journalist Nicolas Henin. "People often join protests for more jobs or higher salaries, but this wasn't for something immediate. It was for France's future."
More than a decade ago, in the wake of the shocking attacks in New York and Washington on 11 September, the slogan that sounded from many capitals was: "We're standing shoulder to shoulder."
Now there is a new version of the same refrain in the most pronounced show of solidarity since then: "Le monde se leve" (The world rises) was the Sunday morning headline in Le Journal du Dimanche.
The morning after, one word was splashed across many front pages in France - "Debout" (Standing). "The world stands with France" was the top line of the International New York Times.
Nearly 50 world leaders cleared their diaries to literally stand shoulder to shoulder again.
They marched, arms linked, along part of the route to be, and be seen to be, part of a French story of pain and resolve.
Now, more than ever, this battle is recognised as a global fight against rising extremism. But some leaders had other reasons too.
The media watchdog Reporters Without Borders condemned the presence of "predators… the leaders from countries where journalists and bloggers are systematically persecuted".
"It's shocking to see some of the leaders here," laments journalist Nicolas Henin.
But, as we stand in the midst of the densely packed, diverse, cheering, flag-waving crowd at the main gathering place of La Place de la Republique, he speaks of a "feel-good day" for millions of people who came from across France and beyond.
"I had to come too," he remarks.
It was in this very place that smaller but still significant crowds had gathered every month, for 10 months, to call for his release, and for the three other French journalists who had been held hostage by the Islamic State group in Syria.
Sunday's call for unity came in the wake of the attack on the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo and the murder of  four legendary French cartoonists who have long wielded the sharpest of pens.
Theirs is a history of France, from the street protests of 1968, to the civil conflict in Algeria in the 1990s, to the worst terrorist attack in half a century that cost them their lives.
By Friday, a series of attacks had also claimed the lives of three policemen, four members of the Jewish community, a cleaner and a bodyguard at the magazine's offices who got caught in the line of fire.
"Terrorism is about attacking symbols," remarks the Paris-based veteran US correspondent Christopher Dickey, Foreign Editor for The Daily Beast.
"This is the real similarity between the 9/11 attacks of New York and Washington and what happened in France," he said.
Both attacks struck at the very heart of a society and its sense of self.
The dramatic collision with the tall gleaming towers of New York, symbols of US economic enterprise and ambition, was in France a bloody strike against a very French freedom of expression: the right to satirise, to provoke, to push people and propaganda from pedestals of piety and power.
In the tributes that flowed from the pencils and pens of cartoonists worldwide, Ruben Oppenheimer sketched the twin towers as two tall sharp pencils, with an airplane headed their way.
In the gruesome mathematics of murder, the attacks are decidedly different.
The al-Qaeda attacks in the US killed some 3,000 people in New York and Washington by turning aircrafts into mammoth, metal suicide bombers.
Seventeen people died in three days of terror in France unleashed by three gunmen wielding assault rifles and rocket launchers.
But day in, day out, since Wednesday's shooting at Charlie Hebdo, people I have met in the streets and squares have invoked that fateful date.
"It is our 9/11" one man declared in the Place de la Republique just hours after the Paris shooting. "It's an attack on our Republic. It's an attack on our humour."
"In very French fashion, people are exclaiming Voltaire has been murdered," said one of France's leading journalists Christine Ockrent in a reference to the French philosopher and satirist of the 18th century, who deployed his sharp wit against the intolerance, religious dogma, and politics of his day.
"But our democracies must face the fact that it is no longer 9/11," she reflects. "A far different war is taking shape in so many countries."
9/11 was a sudden jolt from outside. France's moment emerged from within, as it has in other Western capitals from London to Ottawa to Sydney.
It shocked but it did not surprise.
In France, a country with the largest Muslim and Jewish populations of Europe, there have been growing strains and recurrent violence.
In a nation where many immigrants adhere to the Muslim faith, there has been growing anger and estrangement fuelled by economic disparities, and a polarising debate over values and freedoms.
The burning question now is what percentage of France's Muslim population shares the extremist ideology of the three gunmen who carried out these latest attacks and created a massive security operation on an unprecedented scale.
At Sunday's rally I met countless Muslims from across France and beyond, who condemned extremism and expressed fears of a possible backlash.
"I didn't like the Charlie Hebdo cartoons," said one man of the irreverent drawings which some saw as insensitive and sensational.
"But that's the cartoonists' business, not mine," he added. "They never killed anyone."
9/11 has another echo in France where many believe it was not the event itself but the reaction to it that has helped fuel mounting militancy.
"Its reaction was the Patriot Act, the Iraq war, Guantanamo Bay, repression, aggression and paranoia," wrote prominent French analyst Dominique Moise who is a senior adviser at the French Institute of International Affairs.
"The modern history of the United States falls into two periods, "before 9/11" and "after 9/11," he said.
"In the history of France, there will be also be a before… and after."
Now France has its 1/11, a day when the people of France made a statement, and made history.
Now its politicians and intelligence services have an even greater task of reconciling much vaunted freedoms with greater vigilance.
Will it still be fractious politics as usual, with the far-right, anti-immigration National Front (FN) party of Marine Le Pen gaining in popularity?
Will there still be what Jewish leaders say is about three anti-Semitic acts a day? Other communities complain of everyday racism.
"We need to stand up for more than a day," remarked one man who told me he came to La Place de La Republique because he felt "lost" after the attacks.
"We need to stand together for a long time to come."

Output: In France, many reached for the phrase recognised by all - 9/11.


Input: Consider Input: Mixu Paatelianen said his team's performance was "flat" and "unacceptable". That turned out to be merely the prelude to stronger criticism from Tannadice chairman Stephen Thompson.
In a statement that addressed the team having "failed miserably on the pitch", Thompson admitted to mistakes made in the boardroom.
He finished with a withering remark: "The current playing squad now have 13 matches to preserve the club's Premiership status and redeem their own professional reputations."

The 3-0 home loss was chastening, not least because United seemed to have embarked upon a revival, with two wins and a draw in their three games prior to Motherwell's visit.
It was the moment in the season when Paatelainen's side had to show that they could recover, that resilience and purpose would underpin a revival.

It fell short - jarringly so for supporters as much as the manager and the chairman - and has left United now feeling as though they are in the last throes of this campaign.
It might already feel lost, although Thompson's strong, blunt words can be read as an attempt to provoke a sudden burst of defiance.
Even so, desperation has invaded every aspect of the club. The boardroom mistakes Thompson admitted to might include not engaging in a more critical overview of the recruitment decisions made in the last two transfer windows.
Supporters inevitably first turn their frustrations on the manager and it seemed as though the opinion of some of the fans had turned implacably against Jackie McNamara before he was relieved of his position last September.
McNamara had endured a disappointing 2015 after the winter transfer window closed with the club selling Gary Mackay-Steven and Stuart Armstrong to Celtic on deadline day.
United played 30 league games under McNamara in 2015, losing 17 of them and winning seven (23%), while his overall record was played 99, lost 39 and won 38.
The team's record in the Premiership under Paatelainen is played 15, lost 10 and won two - a win rate of 13%. When the Finn took charge, United were bottom of the table, but only one point adrift of Partick Thistle. Only 12 points separated United from Hearts in third place.
Now, United are 13 points behind second-bottom Kilmarnock, albeit they have a game in hand. The run of results under Paatelainen has been poor and there has been little sign of any kind of resurgence.
The team was already in wretched form when he succeeded McNamara but Ross County were also bottom when Jim McIntyre was appointed as manager in September 2014 and once the January transfer window closed, he steered his side to 10 victories from their remaining 15 league game and finished ninth - eight points clear of the relegation play-off place.
The comparison is damning for Paatelainen, because it shows that alternative was possible to the growing sense of resignation about the club's fate.
Supporters, in the main, seem to have almost accepted relegation is inevitable, although the inconsistency of all the sides in the bottom half of the Premiership means that nothing can be taken for granted.
There are more fundamental issues to be addressed, though. Thompson has previously been adamant that he sees Paatelainen as the right manager for United in the longer term.
January signings were underwhelming, with only Eiji Kawashima and Guy Demel starting regularly, although it is generally a difficult window to do business in.
In his statement, Thompson says that United have the third-highest wage bill in the top flight, which means that in the space of less than two seasons Hearts have built a squad of better ability and value for money.
That ought to alarm a club that has been established in the top six until this season and has a large playing squad.
There is also the potential financial consequences of relegation for a club that runs at a loss and has been reliant on player sales to counter that.
Thompson's statement admits to failings, by the board and by the team. It also represented a last attempt by the chairman to rebuke the players into a response.
Whatever happens, though, United need to improve their recruitment. Two managers have failed to wring more out of the squad, or improve it across two transfer windows. The legacy of that could be a spell out of the top flight.

Output: The aftermath of Dundee United's defeat by Motherwell has been a period of recriminations.


Input: Consider Input: Pirates were beaten 17-16 in the British and Irish Cup, their third defeat by the same opponents in the space of five weeks.
"I know we can produce a lot better than that," Cattle said.
"To run them close is good, but when you reflect on that performance and what we could have controlled, we could have come away with a win."
London Irish, who have won all their matches since being relegated from the Premiership last season, lead second-placed Pirates by nine points in their cup pool with only 10 still to play for.
But Cattle says there is no reason his side cannot secure one of the three places in the quarter-finals for the best runners-up.
"If we get two bonus point wins from Connacht and Ospreys we'll be in with a shout of a runners-up spot," he told BBC Radio Cornwall.
"We're at the midpoint of the season in the Championship, we're five points off third, two points off the top four, so for us we're in a good place.
"Just because results have gone against us in recent weeks doesn't make us a bad team overnight."


Output: Cornish Pirates coach Gavin Cattle says his side wasted the chance for a first win over London Irish this season.
