\nQuick Answer\uff08\u5feb\u901f\u89e3\u7b54\uff09\uff1a<\/strong> \u6708\u4efd\u82f1\u6587 (the months in English) in order are January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, and December. Every month is capitalized, no matter where it sits in a sentence. Abbreviations take the first three letters plus a period \u2014 Jan., Feb., Mar. \u2014 except May, June, and July, which are short enough to write in full. The biggest trap for Taiwanese readers is date format: American English writes month\/day\/year, while British English writes day\/month\/year, so 03\/05 can mean two different dates.\n<\/div>\n

Most students in Taiwan can recite January through December, then freeze the moment they have to use it. They spell September as “Septober,” misread 10\/06 as October 6th when an American means June 10th, or write “in 5th May” on a work email. \u6708\u4efd\u82f1\u6587 is not just twelve vocabulary words \u2014 it is a full system covering spelling, abbreviations, pronunciation, ordinal numbers, and prepositions. This guide lays out that system with complete reference tables: the 12 months, the days of the week, how to write dates, and when to use in, on, or at. Get these right and you will book flights, fill in a r\u00e9sum\u00e9, and schedule calls with overseas clients without a single slip.<\/p>\n

Two pronunciation mistakes show up constantly. The first is February: that middle “r” gets dropped, but the correct sound keeps it \u2014 “FEB-roo,” not “Feb-yoo.” The second is January, where the stress lands hard on the first syllable and everything after it stays light; do not punch every syllable evenly. Treat March, May, and June as your confidence-builders. They are short, they sound the way they look, and nailing them early makes the longer names feel manageable.<\/p>\n
