Is this what you are looking for "今天几号"? (Like for a week, we say "今天周几")

@Shaw, your phrase is a question. It isn't what I was looking for, but it is helpful!

<p>&quot;一個月中的幾天&quot; might be the right translation</p>

<p><strong>update</strong></p>
<p>Now I understand your question!</p>
<p>If you want to list every days of the month, the answer might be</p>
<ul>
<li>這個月有 (這些日子), 初一, 初二, 初三 ...</li>
<li>這個月有 (這些日子), 一日, 二日, 三日 ...</li>
<li>這個月有 (這些日子), 一號, 二號, 三號 ...</li>
</ul>
<p>They are all right, but I prefer the second one or the third one</p>
<p>For example, if you want to list every days in February, it can be &quot;二月有, 一號, 二號, 三號 ... 二十八號&quot;</p>

@Tyr You are getting me very close to what I am looking for. Using your phrase, I came upon a single word 号 Hào. Google translate says one of it meanings is "day of the month". Is this correct?

<p>No it is incorrect. I assume you want to say '(The number of）days of the month'.</p>
<p>It should be:</p>

I am looking for a term that encompasses all of the days of the month. In English, with the term "days of the month" there is an implied "these are the". so, what I am looking for, is a Chinese term that means "these are the days of the month"

Still unsure what your question is. There is no term that encompasses all the days of a month. If you'd make a couple of complete sentences, it may help.

@monalisa Have heard of the terms "days of the week" and "days of the month" before, in English? "Days of the week" are Monday, Tuesday, etc through Sunday. "Days of the month" are 1st through 28th, 30th or 31st depending on the month. I am looking for the Chinese term for "days of the month"

@Walter My previous comment still holds. There is no one term that encompasses all the days of a month. I asked for complete sentences because translation simply doesn't work like what you might think it should. A noun (phrase) may not have a ready equivalent noun (phrase) in another language. A good translation is not necessarily word-for-word. With context, a good translator will be able to express the same idea in the most natural way in the target language. I think this is what people looking for a translation need to be aware of.

<p>Is Tiān de shù yuè (天的数月) the correct way to state &quot;days of the month&quot;? I am looking for a term that will encompass all of the days of the month. This will be the heading for a paragraph that lists each day of the month. In English, the words &quot;these are the&quot; is implied in this phrase, so I suppose &quot;(these are the) days of the month&quot; is the term I am looking for. This will then be followed by Chūyī (初一) 1st, Chūèr (初二) 2nd, etc... listing them as the days of the month. I am looking for an expression similar to &quot;Days of the week&quot; are Monday, Tuesday, etc through Sunday. &quot;Days of the month&quot; are 1st through 28th, 30th or 31st depending on the month.

"一個月中的幾天" might be the right translation

**update**

Now I understand your question!

If you want to list every days of the month, the answer might be

* 這個月有 (這些日子), 初一, 初二, 初三 ...
* 這個月有 (這些日子), 一日, 二日, 三日 ...
* 這個月有 (這些日子), 一號, 二號, 三號 ...

They are all right, but I prefer the second one or the third one

For example, if you want to list every days in February, it can be "二月有, 一號, 二號, 三號 ... 二十八號"

No it is incorrect. I assume you want to say '(The number of）days of the month'.

It should be:

这个（**This** as in the current one or one that was mentioned in previous context) or 本 (**This** as in the current one) 月 (month) 的 ('s) 天 (day) 数 (number).

天的数月 makes no sense to me as a native speaker. It would be if I say **day's number month** in English.

No.

days of the month should be translated to: "某月几日"

例如, 3th April means 四月三日, or 四月初三
