Use dates and the question word ¿cuándo?
La fecha
- The verb ser is used to give dates:
- To expand dates to include years, use the preposition de (of):
- Es el 4 de julio de 1776.
- On the first day of the month use the ordinal number “el primero” (first) and not “el uno”.
- Es el primero de enero de 2020.
- Remember that masculine forms of the numbers are always used with dates, and months are not capitalized unless they begin a sentence:
- Enero es mi mes favorito.
- Also remember, to say “in a certain month” use the preposition en (in):
- Voy a Guatemala en abril.
- However, to say “on a certain day” / “on certain days” use the definite article el / los:
Use subject pronouns and the verb ser to give and ask for information
