Hi, you said the Mandarin Chinese character “月” means moon, but I learned in my Chinese class that 月 means month, so which one is right?
月 has two meanings. One is moon, the other is month.
Here are some examples of when 月 means month: 一月 January, 二月 February, 三月 March, 四月 April, 五月 May, 六月 June, 七月 July…
Ni Hao, It is like this even Chinese also follow Lunar calender or almanac. So, the month is originated form moon symbol. the actual word for moon in yue liang.
