Chinese Word Description

This Chinese flashcard will tell you the most commonly used Chinese word and short-phrases with seconds. Here the Chinese word 星期日 (xīng qī rì), the largest Chinese characters and word focusing on the top Chinese flashcard above, is one of the most common expressions to say Sunday in Chinese language.

Different from the Chinese flashcard for other days within a week, the word Sunday in Chinese consists of three characters but without any numeral character: the first two making up to a core time word in Chinese 星期 (xīng qī) to indicate the time of a week, while the last character (rì) is an important Chinese character standing for a day in the Chinese language.

Similarly, there is another Chinese word 周日 (zhōu rì) which expresses the same meaning as 星期日 but less used in spoken Chinese.

To be noted, something like 星期七 doesn't exist in the Chinese language although we know Sunday means the seventh day of a week. However, there's additional correct word 星期天 (xīng qī tiān) which expresses the meaning as same as 星期日 but only appears in spoken Chinese.
