Usage Note

Date covers both a point in time and the date palm fruit; context usually disambiguates. Quelle est la date d'aujourd'hui? is the standard way to ask the date. Date limite means 'deadline', and date de péremption means 'expiry date' on food packaging.

Examples

"Quelle est la date de ton anniversaire?"
