Questions & Answers about En junio comemos muchas cerezas.
Why isn't junio capitalized here?
In Spanish, months of the year (like junio, enero, agosto) are not capitalized unless they appear at the very beginning of a sentence. This is a common difference from English, where months always get a capital letter.
Why do we use en for "In June"?
When talking about things happening in a specific month, year, or season, Spanish uses the preposition en. You will also see this in phrases like en verano (in summer) or en 2023 (in 2023).
Where is the word for "we" in this sentence?
The "we" is built right into the verb! The ending of comemos tells you it means "we eat". While you could say nosotros comemos, Spanish speakers usually drop the nosotros because the verb ending already makes it completely clear who is doing the eating.
Why is it muchas and not just mucho?
