France most commonly records the date using the day-month-year order with an oblique stroke or slash (”/”) as the separator with numerical values, for example, 31/12/1992.
In France, the all-numeric form for dates is in the order "day month year", using an oblique stroke or slash as the separator.
When months are strictly limited to three letters, juin (June) and juillet (July) are sometimes abbreviated as JUN and JUL respectively, in Canada.
The first day of the month is a special case: a suffix is added to the number, "le 1er avril 2001", where 1er is spoken "premier", meaning first.
To clarify, people may use some sentences like "9 heures du matin" (literally "9 o'clock in the morning") or "9 heures du soir" (literally "9 o'clock in the evening)... but most French speakers would still find using the 24-hour clock a more convenient way of expressing time clearly.
