How to say the DATE in English
An English lesson on how to say the DATE in English.\r
We talk about how ordinal numbers are used for the day with a summary chart of the numbers from 1st to 31st (both as numbers and in words).\r
We then explain how American English and British English are different in the way they order the date Month + Day vs. Day + Month. This includes the problems that can arise when the date is written only as numbers (e.g. What day is this? 3/5/18 . it depends on the country!)\r
We quickly look at the months of the year and their common abbreviations.\r
Next we explain how to say the years in English. This is a summary as we have another video about this topic that contains more exceptions and examples.\r
We then show the different ways to ask someone for the date. and their likely responses.\r
Finally the viewer is asked two questions that can be answered in the comments section.
