Mi cumpleanos es el "uno" o "un" de agosto?

Question

Do I use primero or *uno/un* in the following sentence? > Mi cumpleaños es el ____ de agosto I know that I can say "mi cumpleaños es el dieciséis de abril," but I don't know what to do when I want to say that my birthday is the _first_ of something.

Answer 1

You would say it one of two ways. Either "Mi cumpleaños es el uno de agosto" OR you would say "Mi cumpleaños es el primero de agosto". Both of these forms are grammatically correct.
