Questions & Answers about Nosotros viajamos en el invierno, el diez de enero.

Why is it en el invierno instead of just en invierno?
In Spanish, when talking about seasons, you usually need to include the definite article (el or la). So 'in winter' becomes en el invierno.
Does el diez de enero literally translate to 'the ten of January'?
Yes! To give a date in Spanish, you don't use ordinal numbers like 'tenth'. Instead, you use the regular number and the formula el [number] de [month]. Notice that you don't use a separate word for 'on' here; the el does that job for you.
Why isn't the month enero capitalized?
Unlike in English, months of the year (like enero) and days of the week are not capitalized in Spanish unless they are the very first word of a sentence.
Could I drop Nosotros and just start the sentence with Viajamos?
Absolutely. Because viajamos is specifically the 'we' form of the verb viajar (to travel), who is doing the action is already built in. Including Nosotros just adds a little extra emphasis.
