Are months not capitalized in Italian???

[f.formica]

No; not months, nor days of the week, nor nationalities.

[Dalingo8]

If we don't count German where every noun is capitalized, I don't know any other language beside English that capitalizes months or days of the week.

[dinkdomino]

This is such a relief compared to German, where almost everything seems capitalised!

[Plat_]

Only nouns!

[chupacabrando]

What's the different between "È agosto" and "Siamo a agosto"?

[GRENDIZER.]

"It is August" and there is no "Siamo a agosto" rather "Siamo in agosto" = "we are in August"

[abbradley]

Some of the translations here include the 'a' formulation, e.g. 'siamo a diciembre' - are those incorrect?

[334.34zn2oQcupYW]

Wow it actually IS August

O_O

[onlyonepinman]

Audio sounds like "E gusto"

[PolyakovaA1]

Why isn't IT'S wrong when IT IS is right? The greatest confuse of the course...

[bgscharnhorst]

Having trouble understanding when to use "é" and when to use "è"... can someone explain the difference?

[Pier_Golfoz]

(I'm italian)
95% of italian words with accent use the left-facing accent (╰) (grave)

"Perché" (why/because), ventitré (twenty-three) use the right-facing accent (╯) (acute), but IMHO few people in italy know the real difference in pronunciation

[TomStender]

Why can't you say 'C'è Agosto?'

[sharkbbb]

• C'è agosto = Ci è agosto = There is August
• È agosto = Ciò è augosto = This/that/it is August

[nosola1]

It said I typed in English not Italian, so did not show answer or let me by - I typed - E auguso - wrong but not English

[Malaama]

The pronunciation sounds the same for "agosto" and "è agosto". I just wrote the month first time and got it wrong. A little unfair.

Months not start with a capital letter?

[Dalingo8]

Why would it start with a capital letter? This is neither English nor German.

[rob244586]

HELP! STUCK! Ended here last night. Writing in Italian but DL is seeing English. Reported it but nothing done yet. Should I put this sort of thing on the main forum as a glitch? I'll go through it all again on the www. to see if it's just the app.

[rob244586]

It works at www.
