Russian date format
I just started a Russian class, and at the top of my homework I've been putting the date in English. I want to start doing it in Russian for practice.
A few questions...
- The correct format is 13 октября 2009-год, correct? Is год necessary? I see it quite often.
- Are the dates pronounced as ordinal or cardinal numbers? For example, would the 13 in the date above be pronounced тринадцать or тринадцатый?
- Is it acceptable to abbreviate the months? And if so, what are the correct abbreviations?
Большое спасибо!
