Learn more English with me at http://www.selvaingles.com/como-decir... Busy? No time to watch the entire video? No problem. Here's the takeaway. In English when we SAY the day in the "month-day-year" format we use ordinal numbers (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th...), but we DON'T write them as ordinal numbers. We write the day of the month as a cardinal number (1, 2, 3, 4...). We write the date like this: January 5, 2020. We say the date like this: January fifth, twenty twenty. We DON'T say the date like this: January five, twenty twenty. Toward the end of the video I go into detail about how years are not possessive, and therefore, we do not need an apostrophe before the "s" after the year. Correct: I was born in the '80s.
