ວັນ​ ໃນ​ ອາ​ທິດ,ເດືອນ​ ໃນ ປີ Days of the week, Months of the Year

Hello everyone! ສ​ະ​ບາຍ​ດີ​ທຸ​ກຯ​ຄົນ!

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- ວັນ​ຈັນ
Here are the days of the week.
Wan Khan ວັນ​ຄານ - Tuesday
Wan Phoud ວັນ​ພຸດ - Wednesday
Wan Pha Hud ວັນ​ພະ​ຫັດ -Thursday
Wan Souk ວັນ​ສ​ຸ​ກ - Friday
Wan Sao ວັນ​ເສົາ - Saturday
Wan Aar Thid ວັນ​ອາ​ທິດ - 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 " ​ເດືອ​ນ 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-         ເດືອ​ນກ​ຸ​ມ​ພາ            February
Deurn  Sam ( 3 )-           ( Deurn) Mee Na-            ເດືອ​ນມ​ີ​ນາ               March
Deurn See ( 4 )-              ( Deurn) Me Sa-              ເດືອ​ນເມ​ສາ             April
Deurn  Haa ( 5 )-            ( Deurn) Pird Sa Pa-        ເດືອ​ນພຶດ​ສ​ະ​ພາ       May
Deurn  Hok ( 6 )-            ( Deurn) Mee Thou Na-  ເດືອ​ນມີ​ຖຸ​ນາ            June
Deurn Jed ( 7 )-              ( Deurn) Kor La Kod-     ເດືອ​ນກໍ​ລ​ະ​ກົດ          July
Deurn  Pad ( 8 )-            ( Deurn) Sing Ha-            ເດືອ​ນສິງ​ຫາ             August
Deurn Kao ( 9 )-            ( Deurn) Kan Ya-              ເດືອ​ນກັນ​ຍາ            September
Deurn Sib ( 10 )-            ( Deurn) Tou La-              ເດືອ​ນຕຸ​ລາ               October
Deurn Sib Ed ( 11 )-       ( Deurn) Pa Jik Ka-          ເດືອ​ນພະ​ຈິກ​ກາ       November
Deurn  Sib Song ( 12 )-  ( Deurn) Thun Wa-           ເດືອ​ນທັນ​ວາ            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 -ປ​ີ​ສອ​ງ​ພັນ​ສິ​ບ​ຫ້າ.
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.
