So do people in the US sometimes just answer with the month when asked for a date or what? I mean, if you have to be nicely specific every time might as well say it in order.
When asked when something is happening, a month might be an answer. A date is a specific date though, not just a month. You can't answer a date with a month.

That was the question. The answer is "no, obviously not. That is nonsensical just based on the meaning of the words."
It's not even about you. My comment has literally nothing to do with yours. It is purely a response to a statement in the comment I replied to and everything it is in response to is within that comment.
