• ‘The’ with dates

    Hi there !

    Here's a lesson and an exercise with "the" with dates.

    Have a nice day!

     

    With dates we use the if the date has the number first (most common in British English):

     ex : We got married on the 22nd of September.

     If we're talking about this month, we can drop the month.

     ex : We are meeting on the 12th.

     We use ‘no article’ if the date has the number second (most common in US English):

     ex : She met him on November 16th.

    Exercise : Put in 'the' if it's necessary.

    1. The holiday starts on _____ 1st of July.
    2. She's leaving on _____ 14th.
    3. The trip is on _____ November 22nd.
    4. My birthday is on _____ 20th of June.
    5.  Lucy graduates on _____ June 2nd.
