Knowing the day in your destination’s language is quite fundamental to staying on track and being informed about upcoming events, appointments, and so on. Learning the days in Turkish is both important and pretty easy to grasp.
In many countries, the week starts on Sunday. However, in Turkey, the week begins on Monday. This subtle difference can impact your daily life and interactions while in Turkey Knowing this can be essential when making plans or attending events. Moreover, both Saturday and Sunday are holidays, but many Turkish people need to work on Saturday in Turkey.
"Pazartesi," the start of the working week, indicates the day after "Pazar" (Sunday). Similarly, "Cumartesi" refers to the day after 'Cuma' (Friday). You can see that it sounds very rhythmic.
