Writing June in English - the simple answer
June in English is spelled June. It's pronounced "dzhun" (similar to the sound of "judge" without the first syllable). This is the sixth month of the year in both Portuguese and English, so there's no structural difference to navigate, just a spelling change from "junho" to "June." I remember helping a colleague who was filling out an international loan application one time. The form asked for the birth month in English, and they wrote "Junho" because that's what they were used to. The system rejected it. We spent about twenty minutes going back and forth before realizing the issue was just the extra letters at the end. That kind of thing happens more often than you'd think when people are dealing with forms in a language they only use occasionally.
como se escreve junho em inglês
The direct answer is straightforward: June. Capitalized because it's a proper noun, just like any other month name in English. No accent marks, no "h" at the end. It's four letters, J-U-N-E. Pronunciation-wise, it rhymes with "tune" or "bun" with a J sound at the front. Here's something people often get wrong though: the abbreviation. In English, it's commonly written as "Jun" with a period after it when you need to abbreviate — Jun. In Portuguese, you might see "jun." but the English convention is slightly different. Don't write "Juin" like you would in French, even if your brain is cross-contaminating from other languages you've studied.

The trickiest part isn't really the spelling itself. It's remembering to capitalize it. In Portuguese, month names are lowercase — "junho". In English, they're always capitalized. I once saw a contractor write "june" on an invoice and it looked off, though technically it wasn't a hard error, just a style issue that made the document look unprofessional. If you're typing in English and keep slipping back to Portuguese habits, try the following workaround that actually worked for me: type the month name first, then go back and fix the capitalization. That forced pause helped break the muscle memory habit of keeping it lowercase. Takes about three extra seconds per instance but stops you from making the mistake repeatedly.
Other months follow the same pattern, by the way. July becomes Julho, August becomes Agosto, and so on. The pattern is consistent across all twelve months — capitalize the first letter, drop any accents, adjust the ending if needed. May and July are two-letter and four-letter anomalies that trip people up less often, but June falls right in the middle, four letters, straightforward. The plural isn't really a thing you need to worry about here. You don't say "Junes" unless you're writing fiction or poetry. In practical usage — forms, emails, schedules — it's always just June, singular, capitalized.
One more thing worth noting: in date formatting, Americans write June 15, 2024, while Europeans might write 15 June 2024. The month name stays the same regardless of which format you use, so the spelling confusion usually only comes up during the initial learning phase, not in ongoing usage.
