下旬

• Pinyin: xià xún
• Desglose de hanzi: 下 = lower, final portion; 旬 = 日 + 勹 (sun + encircle — a ten-day period, one-third of a lunar or solar month)

Significado

la última decena del mes (del 21 al final)

Widely used in official announcements, schedules, publishing, financial reports, and formal correspondence. Less common in everyday casual speech but standard in formal writing and Chinese media. Essential for understanding official documents, institutional communications, and news reporting. The three-part division of the month reflects classical Chinese calendar conventions.
