Episode notes
📅 This episode teaches you how Americans really talk about dates, days of the week, and time. You’ll learn the difference between 12/1/24 vs December 1st, how ordinal dates work, when we use o’clock, and why most Americans do not use 24-hour time. These patterns help you speak naturally and understand native speakers more easily.
We also compare American and British usage, explain why month-day-year is standard in the US, and walk through real examples you will hear in everyday conversation, school, travel, and work. By the end, you’ll feel confident writing and saying dates, reading calendars, and using time expressions like a native English speaker.
Use this episode to strengthen your listening comprehension, vocabulary, and fluency — and check the episode notes for a vocabulary list you can review afterward.
