Usage notes

  • Always lowercase in Italian unless starting a sentence; months aren’t proper nouns like in English.
  • Use 'a ottobre' for 'in October'; never 'in ottobre'—prepositions differ from English.
  • No plural form; 'ottobre' covers both singular and plural contexts (e.g., 'due ottobre').
