Help transcribing a date

Question

I've been attempting to get the right script for a date in the Jewish calendar, but I've been finding differences in the year and day translations and was hoping someone could help me. The date is April 1st 2018, which is, if my calendar readings are correct, 16th of Nisan, 5778. I think the main issues I'm having are the differences between the words (שש עשרה) and numerals (ט״ז) and the proper way of writing dates. Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Yes, That would be correct that it is 16th of Nissan 5778. Unless it was after sunset on April 1, 2018 then it would be the 17th of Nissan 5778. A great resource for the Hebrew Calendar is Hebcal.com
