Fifth Day
Day Five, Five Days
noun
Day five or the fifth day. No matter how you look at this word, it makes a lot of sense.
Words that count days use an exceptional reading. Even though this is a jukugo word, it uses kun'yomi readings for both the kanji. Think about this word this way:
On the fifth day I have to eat (いつ) five cars (か). Now imagine yourself eating five cars. How did you manage to get past the first one? I'm impressed.
ミーティングは五日でもだいじょうぶ?
Is the 5th okay for the meeting?
イベントまであと五日。
There are five days left until the event.
ああ、あの女の子?デートして五日でフラれたよ。
Oh, that girl? I got dumped five days after we went out on a date.
