Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between mdy and dmy order?
Month-day-year is common in the US, giving June 11th, 2026. Day-month-year is common elsewhere, giving 11 June 2026. The tool supports both.
What is an ordinal day?
An ordinal adds a suffix to the day number, turning 11 into 11th and 21 into 21st. You can turn ordinals on or off to match your style.
Can I use short month names?
Yes. Switch to short months to get Jun instead of June, which is handy for compact references and tables.
Does it show the weekday?
Yes. The tool also computes the weekday for your date, such as Thursday for 11 June 2026, using an exact calendar algorithm.
How are 11th, 12th, and 13th handled?
Correctly. Those days always take the th suffix, unlike 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, and the tool follows the standard English ordinal rules.
