Mammoth Memory

September – el septiembre

PRONUNCIATION

(Pronounced sep-tee-em-bray)

To remember that September is pronounced sep-tee-em-bray (septiembre) in Spanish, use the following mnemonic:

The septic (tank) team member (September) needed a good bath, so it was a really septic embrace (septiembre) when she gave the customer a big hug.

 The septic (tank) team member (September) needed a good bath, so it was a really septic embrace (septiembre) when she gave the customer a big hug.

NOTE: The way Mammoth Memory remembers September is to think of septic (tank) member. See our Remembering Months section.

Please also note that names of the months in Spanish do NOT have a capital letter at the start, so it's  septiembre, NOT Septiembre.

 

In Spanish, all of the months of the year are masculine, so it’s el enero, el febrero, el marzo, el abril, el mayo, el junio, el julio, el agosto, el septiembre, el octubre, el noviembre and el diciembre.

 

Imagine elephants that take a bath once a month.
