Is it easy for you to recall that month “4” is April, “7” is July or do you have to stop and count every time you see a numbered date?

It’s easy for me
It’s easy
Depends on the month, birthdays, holidays etc
Honestly, sometimes. I sometimes forget March, April, June and July. I’m good at math and have lots of information memorized, but for some reason my brain won’t let it stick.
I remembered the ones with close birthdays first. I only remembered the rest when my new job included writing the date over and over again everyday for 4 years
Mostly easy, I have to think about 8, August, sometimes.
April is easy, my sister was born in April. So I have 04/08 permanently marked in my mental calendar.
July, fourth of July, 07/04. Easy.
June is the least memorable month for me
It’s easy for me. But I can think of a few people in my life who might disagree, if that’s you, don’t sweat it.
Always forget April and May. The rest are automatic.
Count every single time. I know october is 10. and I know february is 2. everything else is counting time.
Some are automatic, others not
The earlier in the year, the better. 9 takes a few seconds to become September, and 3 is March instantly.
I recall most of them are easily, although occasionally when I see the month written in 9 I’ll have to check myself for August or September.
4 is easy because 420
9 is easy because 9/11
1 and 12 are easy
Similarly, 2 and 11 take half a second to think
10 is easy (for me) cuz it’s my birthday
The rest I have to think about for varying lengths, up to like 10 seconds for a mid-year month.
I usually forget August and September, but the rest are easy
This is the weirdest thing for me – I can easily remember everything between january and may, and between september and december, but june, july and august keep getting mixed up, and have since forever.
The first 4 months are easy, sometimes I make mistakes with may, june and july, never with august, rarely but sometimes with september and october, never with november and december
Both
It’s easy.
easy
I have to count, every single time, except for my birthday month. Its one of the reasons I love military date format: 03MAY25
Months are directly linked to the corresponding numbers.
The fact that “west” is left on a compass is not.
Easy and automatic except for 9 somehow
It’s easy for me.
It’s very easy for me. I used to have a sales job in a call center, I think that is the reason why. When entering a credit card expiration date, saying “four” or “April” for example are exactly the same to my brain.
I know them.
But, for some reason, I can never get straight the 31 vs 30 days on August and September.
