Date

The word date can mean:

  • A date is a day on a calendar. It is now Thursday, 2024 April 25, 15:30 (UTC). That means that today's date is April 25, 2024, or 25 April 2024.
  • A date is the fruit of the date palm.
  • When people talk about a date, they can also mean that they are meeting with another person — dating. That person might be their boyfriend or girlfriend. People might go out with their partner to have a meal, or they might go to entertain themselves.
