Unification and unifying

[mrmvp]

Hello

Which one these words "unification" and "unifying" are used correctly in the following examples?
Can I use "unifying" and "unification" as adjectives to modify the noun "day".?

The date of the first two are in British English while three and four are in American English.

1-Emiratis celebrate the unification day on 2 December.
2-Emiratis celebrate the unifying day on 2 December.
3-Emiratis celebrate the unification day on December 2.
4-Emiratis celebrate the unifying day on December 2.

A quick Google search told me that the English term for that celebration is "National Day (United Arab Emirates)" or "UAE National Day". As such, that's the term you should use when referring to it in English. Make sure you use appropriate capitalisation as shown.

Also, your claim that "2 December" is BrE and "December 2" is AmE isn't correct. I can't speak for AmE, but BrE doesn't have a standardised format for dates when using the full word for the month. It's true that they differ when using only numbers:
2/12 = the second day of December in BrE
12/2 = the second day of December in AmE

The finished article would look like this:

Emiratis celebrate [UAE] National Day on 2 December/December 2.

I used the word "Emirates" to refer to Emirati people who celebrate on unification day on 2 December .I was referring to the country. I guess the word "people" is not necessary. Another example Americans celebrate xxxx. not American people celebrate xxxx.you are right the correct name is the national day ,but my question is about the word unification, unifying, and unity.

Which word is correct from the following examples, unification, unifying, or unity ?


1-Emiratis celebrate the unification day on December 2.

2-Emiratis celebrate the unifying day on December 2.

3-Emiratis celebrate the unity day on December 2.

Which word is correct from the following examples, unification, unifying, or unity ?

None of them is correct because, as emsr2d2 said, Emiratis celebrate their National Day.

If they referred to it in another way, this one would be correct:

1-Emiratis celebrate the Unification Day on December 2.

I used the word "Emiratis" to refer to Emirati people who celebrate on Unification Day on 2 December. space here I was referring to the country. I guess the word "people" is not necessary. Another example is "Americans celebrate xxxx", not "American people celebrate xxxx". space here You are right; the correct name is the National Day, space here but my question is about the words "unification", "unifying", and "unity".

Which word is correct from of the following examples, using "unification", "unifying", or "unity" is correct?

1-Emiratis celebrate the Unification Day on December 2.
2-Emiratis celebrate the Unifying Day on December 2.
3-Emiratis celebrate the Unity Day on December 2.

Since we all now know it's called "National Day" in English, I don't understand why you keep trying to invent a new name for it in English. However, as you appear to be determined to do so, I have corrected the capitalisation in all three sentences above. If you really want to use them, use any of them. It won't make any difference. You just have to capitalise it correctly.

I think what you're trying to do is describe the reason for the day, rather than actually naming the day. If that's the case, you need something like "Emiratis celebrate National Day, the day on which the seventh emirate (Ras al Khaimah) joined the federation, on December 2nd". Wikipedia says "it's the anniversary of the federal unification ...". On that basis, if you want to use your own (incorrect) name for the day, feel free to call it "Unification Day". It will still be meaningless in English.
