Ah, counting vs measuring! That makes a lot of sense.
In the west, we measure our age and start from 0. In China, they count their age (number of distinct years someone has been alive in) and thus start from 1. In fact, in China, if you are born on new years eve you can be 2 years old at 2 days old!
