I think "August 8th" is more of an American way of phrasing it, whereas in Britain we say "the 8th of August" which perhaps reflects the difference between dd/mm/yyyy vs mm/dd/yyyy date formats of the countries
Especially annoying when you type the whole thing out, press space to convert those parts to Kanji, then have to go back and put the Hiragana back because you know Duo is gonna reject it for whatever reason.
Or you just input the whole thing in Hiragana only and just go with a massive beast of a sentence.
