Write The Date In Polish

It’s important to note that, when writing out the date, you must use the months on the right side of the list above. The ones on the left are in the nominative case, which is the case used when the noun is the subject of the sentence. But when you’re writing the date, the month needs to be written in the genitive form (on the right), which is typically used to show possession.

There are a couple of acceptable ways to write the date in Polish numerically. First, keep in mind that, as in most countries outside of the United States, the day comes before the month. For November 1, 2018, you could write the date numerically as either 1.11.18 or 1.11.2018, or you can use Roman numerals for the month and lose the dots: 1 XI 2018.

To write the date out in long-form, you use the word for the month and the numeric form of the day and year. So November 1, 2018 would be 1 listopada 2018. Sometimes, people will put an “r” at the end, which stands for rok, meaning “year”.
