French months game
Twelve months, four seasons, and the four calendar words that sit around them: le mois, l'année, le mois prochain, le mois dernier. Most months are readable on sight, but juin and juillet are easy to mix up with each other, and août looks nothing like August.

Most commonly like oot, with the a silent. You will also hear a-oot. Both are accepted in France, and the spelling stays the same either way.

En janvier for months. Seasons split: au printemps but en été, en automne and en hiver, because the last three start with a vowel sound.
