Hello everyone,
Can you please tell me how to start a sentence with a date? I mean, should I start like this: The 26th May, 1986 was the day I was born., or without the 'The' at the beginning? I know that when out speaking a date, you have to say The 26th of May, 1986, and when writting you have to drop the 'the' and 'of', but should you write the 'the' when you start a sentence with a date?
And by the way what do you think about this sentence The 26th May, 1986 was the day I was born.? Is it correct or should it b like this The 26th May, 1986 is the day I was born.?
Thanks in advance.
