When to use 天, 年, 岁, 点, 分, 号 for Time Words Without 个

天, 年, 岁, 点, 分, 号 and 日 are measure words for time, so they go straight after a number with no 个. Some count an amount: 三天 (three days), 两年 (two years), and 岁 gives an age: 十岁. Others name a point in time: 八点 (eight o’clock), 八点十分 (8:10), 五号 (the fifth of the month), 二〇二六年 (the year 2026). 日 means the same as 号 but is used in writing.
