The month–day–year order (for example ' Mai 20, 1999') was previously more common: it is usual to see a Welsh month–day–year date next to an English day–month–year date on a bilingual plaque from the latter half of the 20th century. The day–month–year order is also used in modern Welsh:

ISO 8601 week numbers are found in diaries and are used in business. Some more traditional calendars instead treat Sunday as the first day of the week. Weeks are generally referred to by the date on which they start, with Monday often treated as the first day of the week, for example 'the week commencing 5 March'. Dates in this format are separated with hyphens. The Government Digital Service requires it for all forms of data transmission. The ISO 8601 format (adopted as British Standard BS ISO 8601:2004) is unambiguous and machine-readable, and increasingly popular in technical, scientific, financial, and computing contexts.

To remedy this, the month is sometimes written in Roman numerals, a format common in some European countries: 2.xi.03. It contrasts with date and time notation in the United States, where the month is placed first, leading to confusion in international communications: in the United States, 2/11/03 is interpreted as 11 February 2003.

The date in the day–month–year (dd/mm/yy) sequence can be written with either an oblique or a point: 2/11/03 or 2.11.03 represents 2 November 2003. Neither is distinctly preferred over the other, and there is no risk of ambiguity.Īll-numeric dates are used in notes and references, but not running prose. When the date is written out in full, or when spoken, usage can be one or the other. The month-first format is still spoken, perhaps more commonly when not including a year in the sentence. Consequently in the UK there is no standard pattern for long form dates when printed, as opposed to when using numeric dates where there are standard formats. Example: The London Times and the British tabloids (Daily Mail, Daily Mirror, The Sun, Daily Express and The Star) all have 'Friday, July 22 2022', while The Guardian, the Financial Times and The Daily Telegraph all have 'Friday 22 July 2022'. The month-first form (for example 'December the third') was widespread until the mid-20th century and remains the most common format for newspapers across the United Kingdom. When saying the date, it is usually pronounced using 'the', then the ordinal number of the day first, then the preposition 'of', then the month (for example 'the thirty-first of December').

Date Stamp on houses in Harmood Street, London Date notation in English ĭates are traditionally and most commonly written in day–month–year (DMY) order: įormal style manuals discourage writing the day of the month as an ordinal number (for example '31st December'), except with an incomplete reference, such as 'They set off on 12 August 1960 and arrived on the 18th'.
