How to memorize the days of the week much easier. In order to help you understand it better, first of all, I´m going to give you both, cardinal and ordinal numbers. 1 (jedan) -- 1st prvi (m) / prva (f)/prvo (n) 2 (dva) -- 2nd drugi (m) / druga (f) / drugo (n) 3 (tri) -- 3rd treći (m) / treća (f) / treće (n) 4 (četiri)-- 4th četvrti (m) / četvrta(f) / četvrto (n) 5 (pet) -- 5th peti (m) / peta (f) / peto (n) 6 (šest)--- 6th šesti (m) / šesta (f) / šesto (n) 7 (sedam)-- 7th sedmi (m) / sedma (f) / sedmo (n) 8 (osam)--- 8th osmi (m) / osma (f) / osmo (n) 9 (devet)--- 9th deveti (m) / deveta (f) / deveto (n) 10 (deset)-- 10th deseti (m) / deseta (f) / deseto (n) Sunday, week - nedelja Monday - POnedeljak (this prefix PO is actually a preposition that can mean: after, on something, etc In this case, Monday comes after Sunday and it indicates the beginning of the next week as well. Tuesday - utorak Wednesday - sreda (it comes from "sredina" which means medium. So, it indicates the middle of the week). Thursday - četvtak (the root is ČET which indicates us it is the 4th day of the week). Friday - petak (the root is the number 5 itself, so it indicates us it is the fifth day of the week). Saturday - subota (it is the sixth day of the week. Plus, for Jewish people it is the the day they do not work and they call it "sabat") Exercise: So, what day of the week is today: Koji je danas dan u nedelji? You should say: "Today is .... - Danas je ..." Koji je dan u nedelji bio juče / prekjuče? - What day of the week was yesterday, the day before yesterday? You should say: Juče/prekjuče je bio/bila ..... . Yesterday/the day before yesterday was .... Koji dan u nedelji će biti sutra / prekosutra? What day of the week will be tomorrow/the day after tomorrow? You should say: Sutra/prekosutra će biti ..... Tomorrow/the day after tomorrow will be ....
