I have routinely noticed this sort of construction since a few years [1]. Does it correspond to standard usage in other languages? If so, which ones?

English, where that construction sounds weird and at least needs some helpers around it to exist, is a bit of an odd one out. It is kind of odd that we can say "for three months" to say that something took three months, but we can't say "since three months" to refer to something that has been going on as of three months ago.
