how to write the date in english usa
Date and time notation in the United States In the United States, dates are traditionally written in the "month-day-year" order, with neither increasing nor decreasing order of significance. This order is used in both the traditional all-numeric date (e.g., "1/21/18" or "01/21/2018") as well as in the expanded form (e.g., "January 21, 2016"â€”usually spoken with the year as a cardinal number and the day as an ordinal number, e.g., "January twenty-first, two thousand sixteen"), with the historical rationale that the year was often of lesser importance. The most commonly used separator in the all-numeric form is the slash (/), although the hyphen (-) and period (.) have also emerged in the all-numeric format recently due to globalization.
