Months of the year

The months of the year are all masculine. 

They are:

janvierJanuary
févrierFebruary
marsMarch
avrilApril
maiMay
juinJune
juilletJuly
aoûtAugust
septembreSeptember
octobreOctober
novembreNovember
décembreDecember
  • Note that they do not start with a capital letter unless they appear at the beginning of a sentence. 

To say 'in' with a month, you use the expression 'au mois de' - literally, 'in the month of'. Therefore, 'in January' is 'au mois de janvier'. You can also use 'en', and so you can say 'en janvier'.
