Hello!
Today we started a new topic "Past events". We´re going to talk about the past.
We learnt how to say the years:
1467 - fourteen sixty seven
1809 - eighteen oh nine
1700 - seventeen hundred, but
2001 - twenty oh one, but more often we say "two thousand and one".
We usually use preposition "in" with the year: in 1467.
Saying the date is a bit different from writing it: September 17, 2007 (the seventeenth of September, two thousand and seven).
When we say the date we use the ordinal numbers:
one - the first
two - the second
three - the third
four - the fourth
five - the fifth etc.
To practise saying the dates see a link here. (click on the date to listen to the speaker).
Watch also a video here with full explanations.
Your homework is to practise saying the dates and answer the questions from the copy.
