How different?

I am NOT saying about week.  I am saying about 1, 2, ..., 29, 30, 31.
When we "name" month (it is, infact, number and unit), we also have
to "name" day (i.e., adding unit after the number) in CJK languages.

Anyway, this is not important in "ls -l" discussion because nobody
insist using strftime().
