Today's comment is all about those "th" and "rd" and "st" endings for numbers. The truth is: WHEN YOU WRITE A DATE, IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO ADD THE ENDING--EVEN IF YOU SPEAK IT WHEN YOU READ THE DATE OUT LOUD.
Please mail your check to me by December 9. (not December 9th)
Our next meeting will be held December 1. (not December 1st)
The office Christmas party is scheduled for December 23. (not December 23rd)
Your letters and memos will look much more professional if you follow this simple rule.
Have a great day and write well!
