What is said in this video (German)

What day is it in German

What day

Let's learn

German has seven days Montag Dienstag Mittwoch Donnerstag Freitag Samstag Sonntag All

days end in tag — meaning day Easy to spot

Monday to Freitag are weekdays — Wochentage

Samstag and Sonntag together make the weekend — das Wochenende

Work days versus rest days

To say on Monday use am Am Montag Am Dienstag Am Freitag

The word am means on for days Always am plus the day

The weekend works the same way

Wochenende — on the weekend

Am Wochenende schlafe ich — On the weekend I sleep

Same pattern
