    La fecha

    • The verb ser is used to give dates:
      • Hoy es el 20 de mayo.
    • 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:
      • Me voy el lunes.

    yo I
    you (informal)

    *Nosotros (we) has a feminine nosotras that is used when the entire group is composed of females. Likewise, vosotros and ellos have feminine forms vosotras and ellas.

    ** In Latin America, vosotros is almost unheard of, and ustedes is exclusively used for the plural “you” in both formal and informal speaking.
