Explanation:
1/ From monday to saturday, we put numbers after xing qi from one to six. But sunday it is xing qi tian instead of xing qi qi.  
2/ When we say date, we start from year, and then month, then day. And number in front. Opposite to English. 2013 nian 5 yue 18 hao.
3/ For the month, we don't have special words like May, March. We just put the numbers in front of Yue. 3 yue=march. 5yue=may.
