@@basicinfo6816 I see. In the U.S., that question depends on who you ask. Most consider the week to start on Monday, as Monday is the first day of the work week for most corporate/office jobs unless a holiday falls on a Monday, falls on a Sunday and observed on the following Monday. If you ask someone whose jobs depend on exact time, their week starts on Sunday, the first day of the week by dictionary definition.
Is easily noticeable the similarity between "четверг(thursday)" and "четыре(4)". Also "пятница(friday)" and "пять(5)". Just with this you know the week starts on monday
Also i noticed just now that english speakers write the days of the week starting with a capital letter, even if its not in the beggining of a phrase. Why is that?
The week starts at Monday since Friday has Пят(ь) in it, which is five. So Friday is the fifth day of the week. I don’t speak Russian so I’m bad at explaining it, but Sunday should be the last day.
Thanks for the video! Briefly I met some russians fishing 🐟 off the pier in Oceanside California. I said the days of the week in Russian but my accent must have been not correct for Friday (this was BEFORE I watched your video) Is Friday in Russian similar to the Russian word for "'drunk or wasted'? The Russian laughed when I said the word Friday in Russian but he didn't speak English and he was trying to help. Thank you for any clarification you can offer.
different history I'm guessing. The day could be some like greek diety or something but it probably is just derived from one of the languages close to English while Russian isn't closely related to English
I find this one of the more helpful ways to learn, the slow pronunciation and phonetic spelling is invaluable in learning
The Russian week starts on Monday!
Sarah Fisch the work week or the week in general?

Great vid! Short and clear.

Look at a calendar
My wife is Russian. First day of the week in Russia is Monday. Both Thursday and Friday are named after numbers 4 and 5 in Russian. Simple
Thank you very much.
Why are people saying rude things?
Saturday sounds like the Arabic word which is: Sabt
Thank you
Really helpful video 👍🏼

One more reason to hate Monday, 11 letters is just way too much :-)
Boo hoo you monolingual

sooooo friday is пятница (p'yeahtnits'a) and drunkard is пьяница (p'yanit'sa) and these words are very similar, only one sound is different🕶🤏😳
很有意思的。我單獨讀俄語,這影片幫忙我。
Wednesday, thursday, friday and saturday sound a bit similar to Hungarian
Szerda, Csütörtök, Péntek and Szombat

different history I'm guessing. The day could be some like greek diety or something but it probably is just derived from one of the languages close to English while Russian isn't closely related to English
Because Russian is nothing like English. So ignorant.
