Months of the Year in Italian

Listen to the pronunciation of the months of the year by a native Italian speaker in the video.

I mesi dell’anno in italiano
(The months of the year in Italian)

il mese = the month (singular)
i mesi = the months (plural)
l’anno * = the year

* When a masculine noun begins with a vowel (a, e, i, o, u), instead of using il (= the) as the masculine article before the noun, the contraction l’ is added to the beginning of it.

  • L’anno (= the year)
  • L’ufficio (= the office)

The Italian months of the year do NOT start with a capital letter as in English (unless they are at the beginning of a sentence).

  • gennaio – January
  • febbraio – February
  • marzo – March
  • aprile – April
  • maggio – May
  • giugno – June
  • luglio – July
  • agosto – August
  • settembre – September
  • ottobre – October
  • novembre – November
  • dicembre – December
