ວັນ ໃນ ອາທິດ,ເດືອນ ໃນ ປີ Days of the week, Months of the Year
Hello everyone! ສະບາຍດີທຸກຯຄົນ!
Day in Lao is " Wan" and Month is Deurn and Year is Pii
But the word order is quite opposite from English.
For example: Monday - Wan Jan- ວັນຈັນ
Here are the days of the week.
Wan Khan ວັນຄານ - Tuesday
Wan Phoud ວັນພຸດ - Wednesday
Wan Pha Hud ວັນພະຫັດ -Thursday
Wan Souk ວັນສຸກ - Friday
Wan Sao ວັນເສົາ - Saturday
Wan Aar Thid ວັນອາທິດ - Sunday
Let's look at months of the year. There are two way to communicate about months. Easy way if you learn about numbers you can just use number after the word month which is " Deurn " ເດືອນ and the other one is just remember each month's names.
I am listing easy way, the formal way,phonetic and Lao written words respectively.
Deurn Song ( 2 )- ( Deurn) Koum Pa- ເດືອນກຸມພາ February
Deurn Sam ( 3 )- ( Deurn) Mee Na- ເດືອນມີນາ March
Deurn See ( 4 )- ( Deurn) Me Sa- ເດືອນເມສາ April
Deurn Haa ( 5 )- ( Deurn) Pird Sa Pa- ເດືອນພຶດສະພາ May
Deurn Hok ( 6 )- ( Deurn) Mee Thou Na- ເດືອນມີຖຸນາ June
Deurn Jed ( 7 )- ( Deurn) Kor La Kod- ເດືອນກໍລະກົດ July
Deurn Pad ( 8 )- ( Deurn) Sing Ha- ເດືອນສິງຫາ August
Deurn Kao ( 9 )- ( Deurn) Kan Ya- ເດືອນກັນຍາ September
Deurn Sib ( 10 )- ( Deurn) Tou La- ເດືອນຕຸລາ October
Deurn Sib Ed ( 11 )- ( Deurn) Pa Jik Ka- ເດືອນພະຈິກກາ November
Deurn Sib Song ( 12 )- ( Deurn) Thun Wa- ເດືອນທັນວາ December
In Lao we write Day/ Month/ Year ,which is different from US as well ( Month/Day/Year).
It took me a while to get used to but I still mess up once in a while if I have to date any paper.
Pii Song Pun Sib Ha -ປີສອງພັນສິບຫ້າ.
I will do another post more about numbers but if you need to learn from 1-10 here is the post .
Here are some samples on using day/month/ year.
Please write it in Lao or phonetic word for this phrase.
