Indonesian translation:Bulan sabit muda & bulan sabit tua/bulan tua
Explanation:
A waxing crescent moon – sometimes called a young moon – is always seen in the west after sunset. At this moon phase, the Earth, moon and sun are located nearly on a line in space. If they were more precisely on a line, as they are at new moon, we wouldn’t see the moon. The moon would travel across the sky during the day, lost in the sun’s glare.

A waning crescent moon is sometimes called an old moon. It’s seen in the east before dawn. Now the moon has moved nearly entirely around in its orbit of Earth, as measured from one new moon to the next.

sabit muda & sabit tua


Explanation:
Selepas fasa Bulan Baru (ijtima), sinarnya mula membesar, tapi masih kurang dari setengahnya, diistilahkan sebagai Waxing Crescent (Sabit Muda). Selepas Suku I (Bulan Setengah), hidangan penyinarannya tetap masih bertambah sehingga lebih dari setengahnya, sehingga disebut sebagai Waxing Gibbous. Setelah mencapai Purnama, selanjutnya penyinaran akan mula mengecil, sehingga disebut Waning Gibbous . Terus mengecil untuk mencapai Suku III (Bulan Setengah) untuk selanjutnya menjadi Waning Crescent (Sabit Tua) demikian seterusnya menjadi Bulan Mati atau Bulan Baru (ijtima) kembali.
