Would that be ok to tell someone, for example, that today is chessed shebechessed חסד שבחסד and from that he can understand that this is the first day of Sephirah without mentioning any particular number? Thanks!
A. In principle it is permitted, although one is actually describing the day of the counting, yet he is not using the counting expressions usually needed and used. In a way it is similar to the common answer given when someone wants to know what is the correct day to count and one answers to him, yesterday was so and so.
