How to ask and say the months and dates? Bach Tong and Shannon Powers

Posted by Bach Tong in Spanish 1 - Sanchez on

Explanation 1: To ask in a casual conversation "what date is today?", you ask: "¿Cuål es la fecha de hoy?" To answer that same question  you would say: Hoy es el # de....(date).

To say date, you say [the date's number]  [de]  [the month] (refer back to numeros lesson here for help). For example: uno de enero (January 1st), diez de octubre (october 10th)....

Months                                               
enero-----------------------------January                                      
febrero--------------------------February
marzo-------------------------------March
abril------------------------------------April
mayo-----------------------------------May
junio-----------------------------------June
julio-------------------------------------July
agosto-----------------------------August
septiembre------------------September
octubre---------------------------October
nuviembre--------------------November
diciembre---------------------December

You can also ask "What's tomorrow date?" by saying "¿Cual es la fecha de mañana?". Respond would be: Mañana es......(date).

Note: En Español, we don't capitalize the months as we do en Inglés.
Explanation 2: This would be helpful in any environment. We always need to know what date it is for any business or occasion. You can use this in conversation along with other topics that we did in previous lessons. Hopefully you will be able to have a basic conversation en Español using these lessons. ¡Buenas Suerte! (means good luck!)
