It seems like the Chinese is asking specifically for the day of the week, but this is not clear in the English.

To Be or Not to Be - to Shì 是 or Not to Shì 是 - that is the question? In previous exercises they did not use 是 - 今天几月几号? jīntiān jī yuè jī hào ? What date is it today? 明天几号 míngtiān jī hào What is the date tomorrow? 星期天几号 xīngqī tiān jī hào What is Sunday's date? As the idiom goes: 学善三年, 学恶一朝.

I thought 星日期 几 means Sunday. For a beginner, this has got me all muddled up. Duolingo's teaching technique needs work.

I've been using a free app called Pleco to help understand some of these characters and how to use them differently. It also has a great flashcard function. These two apps together are complimentary.
