It's in the waning, or shrinking, gibbous phase.

处于“亏突”的状态。

Now more than half full, we say its shape is “gibbous”, which means swollen or convex.

在月亮已经超过了半满，我们就称这个形状为“凸月”，英中“gibbous”的意思是肿起或凸起的意思。

Since it's getting wider, this is actually the waxing gibbous phase of the Moon.

由于月亮正得越来越宽，实际上这是“盈凸”月相。

As the days pass, the moon continues to grow, soon entering its next phase, the waxing gibbous.

白过后月亮仍在，着进入了下个阶段：盈凸月。

In between it goes through the same phases as the Moon: crescent, half full, gibbous, and so on.

在这期间，它经历了与月亮相同的相位：新月形、半满、凸月形等等。

Gibbous means 'humped' or 'swollen', and again, we call it waxing because it grows thicker every night until it reaches the next phase, the full moon.

盈凸的意思是突起的，我们把它叫做盈凸因为它每都在，直到它成了满月。

A few days after the full moon the moon will be a gibbous again, but this time it's a waning gibbous.

满月后的几我们又能看到凸月，不过这次是亏凸月。

It goes from new, to waxing crescent, to half full, waxing gibbous, full, waning gibbous, half full, waning crescent, and then the cycle starts all over again.

依次经过朔月、娥眉月、上弦月、盈凸月、满月、亏凸月、下弦月、残月，循环往复。
