Days of the week in Chinese are formed by the word week followed by a number:
Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday | Sunday |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
星期一 | 星期二 | 星期三 | 星期四 | 星期五 | 星期六 | 星期天 |
Notice that Sunday is the only exception. Rather than a number, 天 is used. More formally, Sunday is also referred to as 星期日.
As well as 星期, two other words for week can be used:
- 周
- 礼拜
So a more complete table of days of the week is:
Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday | Sunday |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
星期一 | 星期二 | 星期三 | 星期四 | 星期五 | 星期六 | 星期天 |
周一 | 周二 | 周三 | 周四 | 周五 | 周六 | 周日 |
礼拜一 | 礼拜二 | 礼拜三 | 礼拜四 | 礼拜五 | 礼拜六 | 礼拜天 |
