For clarification, and maybe I will remember it this way by asking....
- What is a Tenday (a week - 10 days?)
- A Ride (a week - 7 days?)
- A Moon ( a month?)
- any word used for meaning a day?
- any word used for meaning a year?

A Tenday is literally 10 days and is associated with the concept of a Faerunian week. A Ride means the same thing and is more commonly used in Cormyr apparently. I'd have to look in depth again at lunar cycles to understand them properly. I don't think there is a different term for a day. Each year is actually named. dnd.steinhour.net/Forgotten_Realms_campaign/Forgotten_Realms/DnD_FR_calendar.htmlThe above link takes you to a calendar (Calendar of Haptros). Also FYI, you have Dale Reckoning, Cormyr Reckoning, North Reckoning, and several other calendars. Hopefully this helps explain some of what you were enquiring about.

Appreciate the response. As far as years go yes, each year is named, that Iam aware of but in terms of using it like, in a day, in a week, in a month, in a year is what i am asking.
Maybe its..... in a Harptos?

I can't find anything that seems to indicate that a day is called anything other than a day, and/or that a month is called anything other than a month.

Maybe its..... in a Harptos? I'll premise this by saying there may be a difference between the way Faerunian time is expressed formally versus in the settings common speech. A Lord's Herald may refer to dates/times more formally in a letter or announcement than a commoner or adventurer would while speaking in passing. With that being said, see if this helps:
