Hoy es lunes once de julio.

Esta semana es especial por mi.
es el "viaje de ninos" a ver el béisbol con mi hijo y un nieto.

Es por practicar pero cierto!

1. Dates always require an article before the day number.

2. In your sentence, "por mí" suggests that you are the reason that the week is special, while "para mí" means that you experience the week as being special.

3. Mi (no written accent mark) is a possesive adjective used only before a noun, as in "con mi hijo". (written accent mark) is a pronoun that is the object of a preposition, as in "para ".

4. At your level of learning Spanish, you should always match every ! at the end of an exclamation with a ¡ at the beginning of the exclamation, just as you should always match every ? at the end of a question with a ¿ at the beginning of the question. If only part of a sentence is an exclamation or a question, the two punctuation marks surround only the part of the sentence that is the exclamation or the question.

I guess that missed ñ and ¡ are because the keyboard distribution is english.

Not always, not in this case. A "coma" can be used instead but not necesarily. You can use an article when the sentence starts with a day number "28 de julio. El 28 de julio." or necesarily when you're using the date as a substantive "... siendo el 25 de julio el día que...", "Cuando llegue el 29 de julio."


2. In your sentence, "por mí" suggests that you are the reason that the week is special, while "para mí" means that you experience the week as being special.

3. Mi (no written accent mark) is a possesive adjective used only before a noun, as in "con mi hijo". (written accent mark) is a pronoun that is the object of a preposition, as in "para ".
