Of course we can’t even agree if it’s the third or the fourth day
Index 0 vs Index 1.
More directly, we can’t agree if Sunday or Monday is the first day. IMO Sunday is the first day. Calendars look better with the weekends acting like bookends.
Estonia is incorrect as well, in Estonian Wednesday would be “kolmapäev”, which translates to “third day”
Thanks!
In Basque language the third day of the week is called asteazkena, “the last day” (aste=week azken=last) because the ancient Basque weeks only had three days. So astelehena= first day of the week = Monday. Asteartea=middle day = Thursday.
In Kosovo the majority is Albanian so they would say Merkure.
For Northern Africa it’s Fourth day too (in Arabic)
In Belgium we also speak Flemish, which is a dialect of Dutch, and German. So Belgium should be orange, red and blue.
It’s a map of countries, not languages… There are a lot more situations in Europe where the boundaries of languages don’t align with political borders.
Some other problems:
- Kosovo is colored the same way as Serbia, but there are by far more Albanians live there, so it should be the colored that way.
- What the hell is the color of Switzerland. Is it colored according to the Rhomansh, a language spoken by 40 thousand people, 0.5% of the population?
this is a very shitty map.
Are you trying to tell us Scots and Irish don’t eat on wednesdays - they just survive on irn-bru and guinness ??
In the US: hump day.
In the US: the third day is Tuesday.
