A date without the year may also be referred to as a date or calendar date (such as "13 January" rather than "13 January 2025"). As such, it is either shorthand for the current year or it defines the day of an annual event, such as a birthday on 31 May, a holiday on 1 September, or Christmas on 25 December.
