[edit]
English: The relation of the phases of the Moon with its revolution around Earth. The sizes of Earth and Moon, and their distance you see here are far from real.

On this image the following are also depicted: the synchronous rotation of the Moon, the motion of the Earth around the common center of mass, the difference between the sidereal and synodical month (green mark), the Earth's axial tilt.

(NOTE: the precise moment of a New Moon take place in daylight when you can see only the bright Sun.)
Gàidhlig: Solais na gealaich
Magyar: A Hold fázisainak kapcsolata a Föld körüli keringésével. A Föld és a Hold méretei és távolságuk erősen torzított.

Az ábrán a következő további jelenségek figyelhetők meg: a Hold kötött keringése, a Föld mozgása a közös tömegközéppont körül, a sziderikus és szinodikus hónap eltérése (zöld jelzés), a Föld tengelyferdesége.

(Megjegyzés: az újhold nem látható, a nap szoros és vakító közelsége miatt. A fiatal holdsarlót csak a köznyelv nevezi új holdnak.)
Norsk bokmål: Månefaser som sett fra den nordlige halvkule. Avstanden mellom jorden og månen er ikke riktig skalert.
Occitan : Dessenh explicant lei fasas de la Luna
Tiếng Việt: Các pha của Mặt trăng
Беларуская: Фазы месяца
Русский: Связь фаз Луны с круговым движением вокруг Земли. Размер Земли и Луны, а их дистанция не действительные.

На этом рисунке тоже просматриваются следующие вещи: синхронизированное вращение Луны, совместное вращение вокруг общего центра инерции, разность сидерического и синодического месяцев (зелёная отметка), наклон оси вращения Земли.

(Замечание: в моменте новолуния только солнце проглядывается.)
Հայերեն : Լուսնի փուլերի կապը Երկրի շուրջը պտտվելու հետ։
עברית : מופעי הירח, כולל ביאור ההבדל בין חודש סידרי לחודש סינודי
العربية : تصويرٌ يُظهرُ أطوار القمر وعلاقتها بدورانه حول الأرض. إنَّ حجم الأرض والقمر كما هي ظاهرة في هذه الصُورة غير واقعيَّة بالمرَّة، وإنما وُضعت بهذا الشكل للتوضيح فقط.
