🇫🇷 Bonus Lesson: How to Write Dates in French | फ्रेंचमा मिति कसरी लेख्ने?
This was our special focus at the end of the video — and it’s one of those things that can really trip up learners.
In French , the standard way to write a date is:
le + [day] + [month] + [year]
Example: le 5 avril 2025
✅ Unlike the US format (Month/Day/Year), French uses the European format (DD/MM/YYYY) . So:
- 05/04/2025 = 5 April 2025 (EU/French)
- But in the US, that would be 4 May 2025!
🚨 This is very important to understand when traveling, applying for visas, or working with European documents.
That wraps up Day 3 of our French learning journey! By now, you should feel confident saying the days, months , and even writing dates in French. Keep practicing by reading signs, calendars, or even writing your own schedule in French!
Tomorrow , we’ll learn about family and relations in French — yes, I bet it that you will be surprised to see the difference from Nepali relation culture to French one ! Don’t miss it! 😊
भोलि हामी फ्रेंचमा परिवार र सम्बन्धका बारेमा सिक्नेछौ।
✅ Daily Practice Tip:
Write today’s date in French every morning. For example:
Aujourd’hui, c’est le 5 avril 2025. Nous sommes vendredi.
(आज, ५ अप्रिल २०२5 हो। शुक्रबार छ।)
