今天/今年/月/号/星期。。。

你好,I need help with time in mandarin.
Which of these are correct?
一。) 我下午有课。
二。) 下午我有课。
三。) 我有课下午。

The first two are correct. Chinese sentence structure, on a basic level, works like this:

Subject + time + place + with who + verb + duration 

我昨天在學校跟我的朋友學了中文一個鐘頭

I yesterday at the school with my friend studied Chinese (for) an hour 

OR

Time + subject + place + with who + verb + duration 

昨天我在學校跟我的朋友學了中文一個鐘頭

Yesterday I at school with my friend studied Chinese (for) an hour

Chinese sentence structure is actually more complex than this, but it'll get you going. :)
