/tuki tati/ → /t͡suitat͡ɕi/

Originally a compound of 月 (tsuki, “moon; month”) +‎ 立ち (tachi, “standing; starting, occurring”, the 連用形 (ren'yōkei, “continuative or stem form”) of verb 立つ (tatsu, “to stand up; to start, to occur”)).

• (Tokyo) ついたち (Odaka – )
• IPA^(key):

• (Tokyo) Note: Generally, words that are Odaka become flat with の (の-particle deaccenting). However, the word 一日 does not become deaccented with の and is still pronounced as:

• ついたちの
• Category:Japanese terms with Odaka pitch accent not deaccented before の (Tōkyō)

一日(ついたち) • (tsuitachi) 

1. the first day of the month (solar or lunar calendar)

The tsuitachi reading is the most common for the “first day of the month” sense when referring to dates.

From Middle Chinese 一日 (ʔiɪt̚ ȵiɪt̚, literally “one + day”). Compare modern Hakka reading yit-ngit.

The goon reading, so likely the initial borrowing.

   • 1997 December 12, Abiko, Miwa, “みかん・絵日記　おはなし⑦ ”, in みかん・絵日記 , volume 2 (fiction), Tokyo: Hakusensha, page 14:

   Rōma wa ichinichi ni shite narazu

Ultimately from Middle Chinese 一日 (ʔiɪt̚ ȵiɪt̚, literally “one + day”). Compare modern Min Nan reading chi̍t-ji̍t.

This reading uses the goon for the first character and the kan'on for the second character, suggesting a shift in reading after the initial borrowing.
