你好。早上好！今天，I will write about how to ask for date.In Chinese, date can be said as 几月几号（ji yue ji hao – how many month how many day）。

When pronouncing date in Chinese, the sequence is :

Year-Month-Day

To pronounce year in Chinese, take for example year 2000,it is pronounced as 二〇〇〇年er ling ling ling nian. Pronounce every digit individually + ‘nian’.

Another example is year 1994 , pronounced as 一九九四 yi jiu jiu si nian 。

To ask question about date :

• ·       今天几月几号？ jintian,ji yue ji hao?

o   What date is today?

• ·       你的生日，几月几号？ ni de shengri, ji yue ji hao?

o   What date is your birthday?

• ·       星期日几号？xingqi ri ji hao?

o   What date is Sunday?

Example of answer is:

2018-05-18

今天，二〇一八年，五月，是吧号。

Jintian,er ling yi ba nian , wu yue , shi ba hao.

Additional info, to ask about （输）zodiac, can use phrase 你输什么？（ni shu shenme?）
