As do Portuguese (but Galician also uses "luns"), Persian (Dushanbe, = Tajikistan, is named for a market held on Mondays, where "du"=3D2), Arabic, = Armenian, Amharic (but Tuesday is "maksenyo" which I guess is "after-Monday= ", = but W=3D4, =DE=3D5), Georgian, Nahuatl (which also uses "lunes"), and Old = Turkic.This is not including Turkic languages which have borrowed some vers= ion = of "dushanbe", Chechen which appears to have borrowed the Georgian word, et= c. Languages which number Monday as 1 or start are Russian (all Slavic languag= es = have a similar word), Chinese, Klamath, East Baltic, and Livonian.
