Warning

This content is available in French only.

Il est désuet d’écrire, par exemple :

  • le 12 de novembre
  • le 4 d’octobre
  • le 27 février de 1944

Quand le nom d’un mois est suivi de l’année, on n’intercale pas la préposition de entre les deux :

  • la révolution d’octobre 1917

C’est la construction habituelle; il ne s’agit pas d’une ellipse.
