"On Month" OR "In Month" Preposition Uses
- We’re planning a trip ___ July.
- His birthday party is ___ the first weekend of June."
Hello, Sofia! Here's how to decide between "in" and "on":
- Use "in" with months because it refers to a general time frame:
- We’re planning a trip in July.
- Use "on" for specific days or parts of the week because it refers to a specific point in time:
- His birthday party is on the first weekend of June.
Explanation:
- "In" is used for larger periods (months, years, decades).
- "On" is used for specific days (or phrases that act like specific days, such as "the first weekend").
I hope this helps!
