)年份
① 读年份时一般分为两个单位来读,前两个数为一个,后两个数为一个:
1949 读作:nineteen forty-nine或nineteen hundred and forty-nine
② 如果是三位数,先读第一位,再把后两个数合起来读:
253 读作:two fifty-three或two hundred and fifty-three
③ 另外: 2000 读作:two thousand,1902 读作:nineteen hundred and two或 nineteen o two
④ 如果要使用year,year放在数词之前
例如:in the year two fifty-three B.C. 在公元前253年
2)月份
月份是专有名词,除了少数几个月份外都有缩写形式:
January - Jan. 一月
February - Feb. 二月
March - Mar. 三月
April - Apr. 四月
August - Aug. 八月
September - Sept. 九月
October - Oct. 十月
November - Nov. 十一月
December - Dec. 十二月
注意:缩写形式后面的点不能省略,因为它是表示缩写形式的符号。
3)日期:
用序数词表示
例:十月一日 写作:October 1, October 1st, 1 October, 1st October, (the) 1st of October等,其中的October都可以写成缩写形式Oct.
读作:October the first或the first of October
4)年月日
用英语表达年月日的顺序:
① 月\日\年
例:2002年1月17日
写作:January 17(th), 2002或January seventeenth, 2002(日和年之间需用逗号隔开)
读作:January the seventeenth, two thousand and two
②日\月\年
例:2002年1月17日
写作:17(th) January, 2002或the seventeenth of January, 2002(月和年之间需用逗号隔开)
读作:the seventeenth of January, two thousand and two
4. 介词的使用:
若指在哪一年或哪一月,用介词in;若具体到某一天,需用介词on。
例如:
She was born in 1989.
She was born in August.
She was born in August 1989.
She was born on 2nd August, 1989
