Months of the year / Days of the week / Seasons

“When is your birthday?” > “I was born on …”

  Date

Pour dire la date, il faut utiliser les nombres ordinaux (premier, second, troisième).

Les trois premiers (et les nombres qui se terminent par eux comme twenty-first — 21st) 

sont irréguliers : first (1st), second (2nd), third (3rd).

Pour tous les autres on rajoute simplement -th :

• => fourth (4th), fifth (5th), sixth (6th), seventh (7th), eighth (8th), tenth (10th)…

1st = first,

2nd = second,

3rd = third,

4th = fourth,

5th = fifth,

6th = sixth,

7th = seventh,

8th = eighth,

9th = ninth,

10th = tenth,

11th = eleventh,

12th = twelfth,

exemple: January is the first month of the year.

Attention ! eleventh (11th), twelveth (12th), twentieth (20th), thirtieth (30th), fourtieth (40th) …

Les mois ont des noms proches du français. Mais la prononciation est souvent assez 

différente.
 

• => January; February; March; April; May; June; July; August; September; October; 
• 
  
• November; December
• 
  
• 
  

Pour lire la date, on commence par le mois, puis le jour, enfin l'année :

• => September, the seventh 2013
