ABSTRACT
When interpreting the word "ke", in addition to the definition of "a quarter hour", "15 minutes", some dictionaries also determine that this word also means "one sixth of the day, according to the division method of the ancient people". Therefore, after referring the explanations of some dictionaries, this article has examined the works on Chinese and Vietnamese calendars and the method of time tracking in ancient records to confirm that there was no definition of “ke” as one sixth of the day. At the same time, to prove the presence of the phrase "six kes a day", ("give gengs a night, six kes a day") in modern Vietnamese, the author has analyzed two reasons for its existence. One is about structure, the other is about semantics.
KEYWORDSKe, six kes a day, calendar, structure, semantics.
