The Obamas - How to speak about your birthday

Hello guys,

today we talked about the Obama family again and lots of you remembered a lot of things about Sasha and Malia! Congratulations!

Here is what we wrote today in your copybook and vocabulary book:

Demander un mot en anglais:
"How do you say ................. in English?"

Birthday:
Malia Obama was born on the 4th of July.
She was born on Independence Day.

-> When were YOU born?
I was born on the ...... of ......

Months:
January / February / March / April / May / June / July / August / September / October / November / December

Day:

1st / 2nd / 3rd -> Attention les nombres avec "one" / "two" / "three" sont irréguliers quand on parle d'une date =

1 -> one -> first
2 -> two -> second
3 -> three -> third

L'abbréviation fait apparaître les deux dernières lettres de chaque mot. C'est facile! :)

La forme régulière est la marque "th" à ajouter. Il faut juste faire attention à "five" qui subit une modification orthographique et phonétique.

4 -> four -> fourth
5 -> five -> fifth (quand on ajoute quelque chose à "five", il devient "fif..." comme dans "fifteen" [15] ou "fifty" [50] également)

11th / 12th / 13th ... (ces chiffres contiennent les chiffres 1 / 2 / 3 mais pas "one", "two", "three", ils sont donc réguliers).

20th (modification orthographique - 20 -> twenty -> twentieth)
21st / 22nd / 23rd ...
24th / 25th ...
31st ...
