I've never heard "primeira-feira", only "domingo". "Domingo" = and "s=C3=A1bado"; the
rest are numbers. Galician, which some consider = to be a different variety of
the same language as Portuguese, uses word= s like "xoves".

Greek numbers the days the same way as Portuguese, e= xcept that Friday
(sexta-feira) is called not =CE=95=CE=BA=CF=84=CE=B7 = but =CE=A0=CE=B1=CF=81=CE=B1=CF=83=CE=BA=CE=B5=CF=85=CE=AE, which means pre= paration.
Russian calls Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday by arbitrarily mo= dified forms of
the words for second, fourth, and fifth respectively (= =D0=B2=D1=82=D0=BE=D1=80=D0=BD=D0=B8=D0=BA, =D1=87=D0=B5=D1=82=D0=B2=D0=B5= =D1=80=D0=B3,
=D0=BF=D1=8F=D1=82=D0=BD=D0=B8=D1=86=D0=B0), but Wednesda= y is =D1=81=D1=80=D0=B5=D0=B4=D0=B0, which means middle.

I prefer number 4, but I don't think the beginners' list is the= right place to
