A bare day name means "on that day" this week - luni is "on Monday". Adding the definite ending makes it habitual: lunea is "on Mondays". Months take în, and a date is pe plus the number. Days and months are lower case.
Examples
- Am curs miercuri.
- I have a class on Wednesday.
- Sâmbăta nu lucrez.
- On Saturdays I don't work.
- Ziua mea este pe opt aprilie.
- My birthday is on the eighth of April.
The mistake to avoid
Luni is Monday and lunea is "on Mondays" - one letter changes a date into a habit.
Where this fits in
Numbers, days, time, Romanian A1: Count, talk about days and months, give the time, and handle numbers in real situations.
