Birthday vs Birthdate

Personal information includes our full name, birthdate, phone number (s), mailing address and / or even our email addresses. 

 

In this lesson, we’ll learn to differentiate BIRTHDAY and BIRTHDATE.

Birthday is the anniversary of your birth (September 20), and so we do celebrate it every year. 

Example Sentence : I will have my birthday party next week at my grandparents’ house in Aichi Prefecture. 

Birthdate or date of birth  is the day and year when you were born (September 20, 1989).

Example Sentence : I sent a message to my mother to ask her birthdate .It is required on my passport application form.
