Months - do we use 'a' or 'en'?
This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Ser vs Estar in Spanish: Use estar (not ser) to talk about dates, days of the week and seasons (colloquial)"
Asked 5 years ago
Hola Huw,
For months we say when asking:
¿En qué mes estamos?
Which month is it [now]?
Answering to this question you'd say:
Estamos en marzo.
It is March.
You'd use "a" when specifying the date, but not when you only say the month.
Estamos a 15 de marzo.
It is March 15th.
I hope this helps.
Inma
