Ordinal numbers in the name of each day of the week. Synopsis of the famp lesson in the senior group "ordinal numbers

Subject: Formation of ideas about the days of the week in older preschoolers in various types of children's activities.

Lead area: Cognition

Region Integration: Communication + Socialization + Health + Music + Artistic creativity+ Labor + Reading

Planned results of the development of integrative qualities: has a basic understanding of the days of the week; correctly uses quantitative and ordinal numbers (within 7), answers the questions: “How much?”, “Which one?”; knows how to establish a sequence of various events: what happened before (at first), what later (later), determine what day is today, what was yesterday, what will be tomorrow; names the current day of the week; can participate in the conversation; is able to reason and give adequate causal explanations if the analyzed relationships do not go beyond his visual experience; shows interest in the information received in the process of communication; uses different colors and shades to create expressive images; performs static and dynamic exercises; examines illustrated editions of children's books, shows interest in them; performs movements that correspond to the nature of the music, independently changing them in accordance with the form of the musical work; knows how to perform dance moves; is able to keep in memory when performing any actions a simple condition; able to act with concentration for 15-20 minutes; shows a steady interest in various types of children's activities.

Tasks:

form ideas about the days of the week and their sequence;

fix quantitative and ordinal numbers (within 7);

to consolidate the ability to answer the questions: “How much?”, “Which one?”;

to consolidate the ability to establish a sequence of various events using specific examples: what happened before (at first), what later (later), determine what day is today, what was yesterday, what will be tomorrow;

develop the ability to maintain a conversation;

develop attention, memory, perception and thinking;

educate curiosity and interest in various types of children's activities.

Direct educational activities:

One of the tasks for FEMP in the older group is to form children's knowledge about the week. The days of the week, the week are abstract concepts. They cannot be touched, they have no color, which means that it is very difficult for children to remember them. For memorization, it is necessary to use various visual aids. This will help the child to "see and touch" the days of the week and learning will go much more successfully. It is necessary to form and consolidate these concepts in various types of children's activities.

Communicative activity- this is primarily a conversation, during which the child's ideas about the days of the week are fixed. For a daily productive conversation, it is recommended to have a visual support - the "Days of the Week" calendar. You can make it in the form of a watch dial, where instead of the usual numbers indicating the time, there will be the names of the days of the week (preferably with their serial numbers) and one arrow. Every morning, move the arrow with your child to the desired day of the week and pronounce the name of today. Be sure to draw the child's attention to the fact that the names of some days of the week contain a “hint”: Tuesday is the second day of the week, Wednesday is in the middle of the week, Thursday is the fourth, Friday is the fifth. Each day of the week of a different color corresponding to the spectrum of the rainbow, when naming the day, draw the child's attention to the number. Ask questions every day to help reinforce the order of the days of the week.

How many days in a week? How many days off? How many weekdays?

What day of the week is the first?

What day of the week is the last?

What day of the week comes after Wednesday? Before Tuesday?

What day of the week hid between Wednesday and Friday?

What is the name of the second, fourth, third, fifth day of the week?

Name the day of the week each day. Then ask the child to name the day that was first (yesterday) and will be later (tomorrow) - in this way, the following temporary concepts will be fixed - yesterday, today, tomorrow. If the child attends a kindergarten or developmental centers, you can remember what days the classes are.

As an illustration, a wooden calendar can also be made with holes opposite each day of the week and a chip inserted into the hole. Let every morning, waking up, the child inserts a chip into the hole, and you tell him: “Today is Tuesday, the second day of the week”

Another option for visualizing the sequence of days in a week is to draw on paper or make an application in the form of a train and seven multi-colored trailers on which the names of the days of the week are written. At the same time, it becomes clear to the child that just as the cars always follow the locomotive in the same order and cannot change places, so the days of the week strictly follow one another and Friday can never overtake Wednesday. By attaching such a train to a child’s refrigerator or magnetic board, you can attach a magnet to the trailer and move it according to the day of the week.

Game activity. It is necessary to reinforce these concepts in play with toys.

Invite the child to line up 7 toys and give each toy a circle of seven different colors. The child distributes and calls: “To the doll - Monday, to the bear - Tuesday, etc.). Then the circles are collected, mixed and distributed again in exactly the same way in the order of the days of the week.

Line up 7 nesting dolls with your child in height and ask him to name each nesting doll a specific day of the week. All seven nesting dolls are a week.

The caterpillar pyramid with numbers will help the child to fix the names of the days of the week and their order during the game.

Game "Be Careful"

You name different words, including the days of the week. If the baby hears the name of the days of the week, then he should clap his hands: fox, bread, Tuesday, Wednesday, book, Sunday, shorts, bicycle, etc.

Game "Show me right"

The child has cards with numbers from 1 to 7. You name the day of the week, the child shows the corresponding card, Monday - 1, Tuesday - 2, etc. Cards with numbers can be replaced with cards with dots (from 1 dot to 7). If there are no cards, you can show on counting sticks - 1 stick, 2 sticks, etc. or clap your hands as many times as needed.

We play with the ball

Stand in front of each other, throw the ball to each other and take turns calling the days of the week. You can complicate the game by naming the days of the week in reverse order.

Labor activity. Encourage your child to repeat the names of the days of the week while tidying up after educational activities, cleaning the room, caring for flowers, folding toys, washing dishes.

Motoractivity. Performing movements with words:

Monday - Stretched

And on Tuesday we bent.

On Wednesday, everyone sat down.

And on Thursday we jumped.

On Friday, they applauded.

On Saturday we sank.

Sunday twirled

And they returned to their place.

productive activity. Invite the child to arrange the parts of the split picture according to the order of the days of the week. If the child correctly copes with the task, then he will collect a split picture. A split picture can match the theme of the week. In this example, it is "Animals"

You can invite the child to make their own days of the week from colored cardboard or make a flower - a seven-flower, where each petal is a day of the week from plasticine.

The children of the "Rainbow" group, together with their parents, made 7 multi-colored gnome balls and Queen Nedelya. Their caps have a number and the name of the day of the week. Children put the days of the week in order and name them correctly. If a child can independently show where Monday is, where Wednesday is, where Friday is on little men, then the concept of “days of the week” for him is not just a mechanical memorization of names, but is a conscious concept.

Search and research activities. Imagine with your child a situation where one of the days of the week, for example Thursday, is lost. This is easiest to represent on visual models of the days of the week.

What will happen? (Instead of Saturday there will be emptiness.)

What will happen with the week? (It will become shorter. The row of the week will be interrupted.)

What happens to the order of the days of the week? (He will be broken)

What day of the week comes after Friday? (Sunday)

Can there be a fifth day after the third day of the week? (This does not happen. There should be 7 days of the week. They must follow each other in strict order)

Musical and artistic activity Often draw your child's attention to the fact that many events in his life are repeated on certain days. For example, on Tuesdays you go to the pool with him, on Fridays you go to dances, and on Saturday your grandmother usually comes to visit. remember this day.

Having multiplied 7 times the coloring of your favorite heroine or fairy-tale hero of a child, you can offer to color their clothes in a certain color corresponding to the day of the week. Having arranged the colored pictures in order, the child names the days of the week.

And so that during artistic activity the fingers do not get tired and develop. Repeat fun musical gymnastics for fingers, the words of which will help to fix the names of the days of the week.

Finger music workout

Among the days of any week

Monday will be the first.

The second day followed him,

This Tuesday came to us.

We can't go anywhere...

The third day is always Wednesday.

He is the fourth here and there,

This day is called Thursday.

In a series of working days

Fifth Friday now.

All work completed

Day six is ​​always Saturday.

Day seven?

We know him:

Sunday - rest!

Reading fiction. Another way to help your child learn the days of the week is to teach them a fun poem about the days of the week. There are many such verses. These are Jan Brzekhva's "Fly-cleaner", "Seven Days of the Week" by A. Usachev, "Week" by E. Stekvashova and others.

In a previous article on the topic of numerals, we dealt with the use of numbers in relation to the time of day. Today we will talk about calendar dates. As you will see, the material again turns out to be quite voluminous. Well, what can you do.

June 8, 2011 — June eighth, two thousand eleven.

If you already have a question on your tongue, please be patient, we'll get to it soon. In the meantime - about everything in order.

Years

Unlike the Russian language, where the year is expressed by an ordinal number, in English a cardinal number is used for this purpose ( cardinal number), which is just a number. If we are talking about a four-digit year, when voicing, the number is divided into halves and pronounced in pairs:

1812 — eighteen twelve
1939 — nineteen thirty nine
2010 — twenty ten

Speaking about the years of the new millennium, it should be noted that here, nevertheless, another form is used more often: two thousand x, two thousand and x:

2000 — two thousand, the year two thousand
2005 — two thousand and five, two thousand oh five
2010 — two thousand ten, two thousand ten
2011 — two thousand and eleven, two thousand eleven

I bought my first car back in nineteen ninety-nine— I bought my first car in 1999.

By the way, due to the fact that their year is expressed by a cardinal numeral, many Anglophones, by the simplicity of their souls, believed that the third millennium should begin on January 1, 2000. ( January 1, 2000) - well, like, the discharges were reset to zero, which means a new era has come. But it was easier for us to understand that this is not just a year with the number 2000, but the two thousandth year, and it will drag on until midnight on December 31, at which point the twentieth century will end, and at the same time the entire second millennium - and already after this, with the first moments of January 1, 2001, will be the beginning of a new era.

Decades

Again, unlike us, Anglophones use not ordinal, but cardinal numbers to denote decades; the plural form is formed according to the standard rules English grammar. The name of the decade necessarily includes the definite article the:

80s - the eighties
90s - the nineties
2000s (zero) - the two thousands

If we have to say "in the mid-nineties", we'll say in the mid-nineties.

The seventies will be remembered for the rise of disco music The seventies will be remembered as the heyday of disco music.

Centuries

Here we are again in for a surprise: if years and decades are expressed in English by quantitative numbers, then centuries - for some reason, just like ours, by ordinal numbers ( Ordinal Numbers). At the same time, please note that it is customary for them to use not Roman, but ordinary Arabic numerals to record centuries. (which are actually not Arabic at all, but Indian). If you want to specify the era, add the abbreviation BC (Before Christ) or AD (Anno Domini).

12th century BC e. — twelfth (12th) century BC
5th century n. e. — fifth (5th) century A.D.
18th century — eighteenth (18th) century

In a connected context, the definite article is added before the name of the century. the.

The world's population more than tripled during the 20th century— The world population has more than tripled in the twentieth century.

Days of the Month

In its most common form, a date is expressed as the name of the month followed by a number represented by an ordinal number: Month N th . At the same time, in writing, the tail of the order is usually dropped: that is, it is not written 15th , but just 15 - but you must remember that it is necessarily pronounced as fifteenth!

February, 15 - February fifteenth(February 15)
April 1 - April first(April 1)
December 22 - December twenty second(December 22)

Sometimes, to emphasize the significance of the date, a slightly modified format is used: the N th of month. If you remember, there was such a film with Tom Cruise, Born on the Forth of July- "Born on the 4th of July", that is, on the day of their American independence ( independence day).

Months

Actually, this has nothing to do with numerals, but since we have touched calendar theme, it would be useful to refresh the memory and English titles months.

  • January- January
  • February- February
  • March- March
  • April- April
  • May- May
  • June- June
  • July- July
  • august– august
  • September- September
  • October- October
  • October- november
  • December- December

As you can see, nothing very complicated. To learn how to pronounce it, listen to this simple song:

Days of the Week

Well, to the heap, let's add the days of the week.

  • Sunday- Sunday
  • Monday- Monday
  • Tuesday- Tuesday
  • Wednesday- Wednesday
  • Thursday- Thursday
  • Friday- Friday
  • Saturday- Saturday

In order not to bore you with another children's song, let me better chime you incorruptible Friday I'm In Love good old punks The Cure: for our purposes, it will come in very handy.

The English calendar has one unpleasant feature: the week in it starts with Sunday i.e. from Sunday. The inconvenience in this is obvious, since such a calendar grid is in blatant contradiction with both common sense and universally accepted everyday practice. After all, the horse understands: plowed for five working days, relax for two days off. The British in the depths of their souls admit it themselves, it is no coincidence that the word weekend literally translated as "end of the week", and means exactly the same as ours: Saturday and Sunday. However, their calendars are eventually laid out in such a way that two adjacent days off are spaced on opposite sides of the weekly grid.


All this, of course, is not fatal, but, unfortunately, it introduces some cognitive dissonance.

Yes, and here's more. Please note that the names of the months and days of the week in English are capitalized.

On this topic, English numerals in calendar dates will be considered closed, and finally, as we have already done, everyone is invited to practice transcription.

Please proceed piecemeal. When we're done, the corrected transcript will be hung below the video.

Who will start?

Well, to the point. There are two things that are not clear in the “Today in History” video:

~0:20: …The Beatles released what's considered one of the world's greatest albums, “Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band”

~1:14: Eighteen oh one, Brigham Young, the Mormon leader whose religious followers settled in what's now Utah, is born in Whitingham, Vermont.


I must say that the name of the founder and the place of his birth had to be searched on Google, and before that, both were completely incomprehensible.

"What, no one wants to transcribe the "Today in History" video? I thought the English scholars would be happy to have the opportunity to practice ... Or is everything too complicated there?"

I really want to, I’ll just rake up the project at work ...

I have to admit it "s not easy to understand sometimes. Far from perfect, I think, but …

3. Organizing time.

The teacher reads the letter:

“Dear children of the Smeshariki group of the Malyshok kindergarten!

Petya Apelsinov, a 1st grade student, is writing to you. The thing is that in the math lesson I was constantly spinning, distracted, climbed under the desk, in general, did not listen to the teacher when she explained new theme and for this, the Fairy from the Land of Mathematics bewitched me and in order to remove the curse, you need to complete the following tasks, but since I did not listen to the teacher, I can’t do it alone, help me, please, and when all the tasks are completed, the Fairy of the Land of Mathematics will let me go , and I will always listen to the teacher and will do all the tasks myself. Your friend Petya Apelsinov

4. Warm up

Guys! Let's help Petya? (children's answers)

Let's start with the first task then.

You need to answer the following questions:

  • If the table is higher than the chair, then the table? (below the table)
  • If the road is wider than the path, then the path? (already expensive)
  • If the ruler is longer than the pencil, then the pencil? (shorter ruler)
  • If the rope is thicker than the thread, then the thread? (Thinner than rope)
  • If sister is older than brother, then brother? (younger sister)

Well, well done you guys! Here we are with the first challenge!

5. Ordinal up to 10 in forward and reverse order.

Petya writes the next task to us: “To help me remove the curse, you need to show the numbers from 1 to 10 in the correct order and in the reverse order, I can’t complete this task in any way”

6. Consolidation of knowledge about the sequence of days of the week.

Invite the children to listen to the poem:

Our ship ran aground

And sailors all week

They ate caramel aground.

How many days did the sailors sit aground? (7)

Why do you think so? (per week 7 days)

What day of the week is today?

What day of the week was yesterday?

What day of the week will be tomorrow?

What day of the week is between Monday and Wednesday?

What day of the week comes before Thursday?

What day of the week is after Friday?

6. The game "Build a week"

Well done! And with this task you coped! Did you know that each day of the week has its own serial number.

7 children are called and cards with numbers from 1 to 7 are distributed. And the children, together with the teacher, compare the day of the week with ordinal numbers and line them up.

7. Work in notebooks.

In most modern calendars, including the Gregorian, a week is a period of seven days, which is the largest generally accepted unit of time containing the exact number of days and nights (in a week - always 7; in a month - 28; 29; 30; 31; in a year – 365; 366). The week is widely used as a unit of time, although it has no direct astronomical basis. Weeks can be considered to form an independent calendar used in parallel with various other calendars.

There are some calendars designed so that each date always falls on the same day of the week each year. This can be achieved by making the week dependent on the year, with several days in the year not related to any week. So, for example, the proposed World Calendar contains 52 weeks plus 1 (2) days, and the French Revolutionary Calendar consists of 36 weeks of 10 days and 5 (6) additional days. The year can also depend on the week, so the former Icelandic calendar had 52 or 53 weeks.

The ancient Egyptians used ten-day weeks (decades). The seven-day week first came into use in the Ancient East (in Babylon). In the 1st century A.D. it began to be used in Rome, from where it spread throughout Western Europe. Thanks to European colonization and subsequent globalization, the 7-day week began to be used everywhere, even in those cultures that did not previously have such a unit of time.

The word "week" is a tracing paper from the Greek "apracos" - non-working, weekly, idle. It also has an outdated name of the week (s) mitsa, which has retained its use mainly in the Orthodox tradition. In the Dagestan languages ​​(for example, Avar. - Ank), this word indicates the number of days - seven.

Before the establishment of the traditions of monotheism, all the days of the week received special names associated with the names of the seven heavenly bodies. So, Saturday was called the day of Saturn, and the following in order - the day of the Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus. These names in Western European languages ​​have partly survived to the present day.

In Slavic languages, most names of days indicate their place in the week after Sunday (which in many of them is called "week", that is, the day when they do nothing, do not work): Monday (after "week"), Tuesday (second) and etc.

The names of the days of the week in the languages ​​of the peoples of Dagestan, their origin and meaning, at first glance, do not say anything special, except for an interesting combination of elements of different cultures in them, which prompted the author to take up this article. And, indeed, if the Arabic word al arbig1a means "four", why do we call the environment with this word, i.e. third day of the week? Let's look at the days.

Monday is the day of the week between Sunday and Tuesday. Among the ancient Romans and the North Germanic tribes, it was dedicated to the Moon (Spanish lunes, German Mon(d)tag = day of the moon). The word "Monday" was formed from the expression "after the week."

As in many countries, we consider "Monday" as the first day of the week, since it is usually on this day after the weekend that adults return to work and children go to school. In many countries "Monday" is the first day of the week, but sometimes also the second day (a traditional view, originating from ancient Judea and still the standard in some countries). It is for this reason that the name "Monday" in Arabic, Greek, Hebrew and Portuguese- "second day".

In the languages ​​of the peoples of Dagestan, who almost completely adopted the Arab-Muslim religious and linguistic culture, the name of Monday retained the root of the Arabic al itnaini - “second” (Avar. - itni; darg. - itni; Lezg. - Islen; Kum. - itni; lak . - itni). And the Arabs first (al ah1ad) call the usual for us last day of the week "Sunday". Thus, the count of the days of the week in the Dagestan languages ​​is shifted by one day.

Tuesday is the day of the week between Monday and Wednesday. Among the ancient Romans, it was dedicated to Mars (Mars, Italian. Martedì), among the North Germanic tribes - Tyru (Týr, Norwegian. Tysdag). The word "Tuesday" was formed from the ordinal number "second". Although it is the second according to the calendar used by the Dagestanis, they all call it the third, from the Arabic at talat - “third” (Avar. - Talat; Darg. - Talat; Lezg. - Salasa; Kum. - Talat; Lak. - Talat) .

Wednesday is the day of the week between Tuesday and Thursday. In ancient Rome, this day was dedicated to Mercury, which is preserved in the Romanesque names of this day (fr. mercredi). AT northern Europe Mercury corresponded to Odin, hence the English and Dutch names. If Sunday is taken as the first day of the week, then Wednesday falls in the middle of the week, hence the Russian and German names, although for Russians according to the current calendar this is not at all the middle of the week.

In some European languages ​​(in Slavic, German, Finnish, Icelandic), the name of the day of the week Wednesday indicates the fact that Wednesday was originally the 4th (middle) day of the week, and not the 3rd, as it is currently in European countries.

For all Dagestanis, this day, of course, is the third, but they call it Arabic al arbig1a - “fourth” (Avar. - arbag1; darg. - arbag1; Lezg. - arbe; kum. - arbag; lak. - arbakh1).

Among the Avars, it is also customary to call the environment sapar-ko, i.e. day of travel, the day on which it is considered desirable for one intending to go somewhere to begin his journey. Among the Laks, Saturday is considered such a day, which is preserved in their name of this day - khuldun.

Thursday is the day of the week between Wednesday and Friday. Among the ancient Romans, it was dedicated to Jupiter (Italian Giovedì), among the North Germanic tribes - Thor (English Thursday). The Russian name comes from the ordinal number "fourth", since this is the fourth day of the week from Monday.

In some international conventions, Thursday is the day that determines the numbering of weeks: the first week of the year is defined as the week containing the first Thursday of the year, and so on. Still, the four days (from Thursday to Sunday) that make up most of the week give the right to define this period of time as a week.

In the languages ​​of all the peoples of Dagestan, the name of this day goes back to the Arabic al-khamis - “fifth” and sounds almost the same (Avar. - Khamis; Darg. - Khamis, Lezg. - Hemis, Kum. - Khamis, Lak. - Khamis).

Friday is the fifth day of the week, between Thursday and Saturday. Therefore, it was from the numeral “five” that the name of this day came from.

Among the ancient Romans, Friday was dedicated to Venus, among the ancient Germanic tribes - the goddess Frigg (Fria). Therefore, in English, Friday is called Friday.

In the name of Friday, all the Dagestani peoples in their languages ​​fully preserved the root of the Arabic word, but not the numeral, as in the names of other days, but the word al jumg1a - “collective” (unifying into a collective worship). In some of them, the sound coincides almost completely (darg. - zhumyag1; Lezg. - dzhumya; kum. - zhuma), while in others it assimilated in accordance with the phonetic norms of their language (Avar. - ruzman; lak. - nyuzhmar).

The reasoning regarding Friday as a day off for Muslims, and in connection with this, the count of the days of the week for Dagestanis shifted by one more day, is not substantiated. Counting after Friday, Saturday was to be the first day and Sunday the second. And the Arabs call Sunday the first day - al ah1ad. Friday became a special day for the Arabs with the adoption of Islam, and this counting order is associated with the pre-Islamic tradition of the sequence of counting the days of the week, in which the day off was, in our modern sense, Saturday, and the count is kept from the next day: al ah1ad - the first (Sunday ); al itnaini - the second (Monday), etc.

Saturday is the day of the week between Friday and Sunday. The ancient Romans was dedicated to Saturn. The word itself comes from the Hebrew "Sabbath", which spread along with the Babylonian calendar and Christianity throughout Europe.

According to a tradition inherited from ancient Judaism, Saturday is the last day of the week. This convention remains the standard in the US and Israel, but in modern Europe many people now view Saturday as the sixth (penultimate) day of the week, and Sunday as the last. This understanding is enshrined in ISO 8601.

In commandment-based Judaism Old Testament, Saturday (Shabbat) is a sacred day that should be dedicated to worship, stopping all work.

In many languages, the difference between Shabbat and Sabbath is not visible (Arabic as sabt - “stop”), but in some European languages, including English, there is a difference between Saturday and Sabbath.

The Arab-Muslim culture, which was quite strongly reflected in the names of other days of the week among the Dagestan peoples, retained its influence in the closest name of this day only in Avar- shamat. Kumyks call this day songlu, which means "next". The etymology of this word in the Kumyk language is similar to the formation in Russian of “Monday” (after “week” (Sunday), which was considered a special day of worship). "Songlu" - the next after Friday - a special day of worship for Muslims. The Laks have a fixed name khuldun, which means "road". With a similar meaning, the Avars call Wednesday - sapar-ko - the day when they go on the road, start the journey. Lezgins call Saturday their own word kish, which in its meaning coincides with the Arabic as sabt - “stop”. In the Dargin language, the Arabic as sabt, assimilated in the day, has been preserved.

Sunday is the day of the week between Saturday and Monday and is considered a public holiday in many countries.

For many nations, Sunday was a day dedicated to the Sun (the god of the Sun). This was typical, in particular, for the pre-Christian beliefs of Egypt and was borrowed by the Roman Empire through the name of the days of the week (Sunday - dies Solis, that is, "the day of the Sun"). This name passed to the Germanic tribes, and in the Germanic languages ​​the word "Sunday" literally means "day of the Sun" (English Sunday, German Sonntag). In India, Sunday is called Ravivar, the day of the Sun.

In the Typicon, the Monthly Book, and other church liturgical books, this is the name of the first or last (every seventh) day of the Sed (s) Mitza, dedicated to the liturgical remembrance of the Resurrection of Christ in the weekly circle of worship, which was later preserved in the name of this day as “Sunday”.

Most Slavic languages Sunday is still called “week” (Polish niedziela), that is, the day when “they don’t do it”, they don’t work. In Russian, this name was transferred to the word week, with the designation of a time period of seven days.

According to the Jewish and Christian calendars based on the Bible, Sunday was considered the first day of the week. It comes after Saturday, the seventh day of the week in the old religious calendars. Christianity borrowed the order of the days of the week from the Jewish calendar. In the Roman Empire, the first Christian emperor, Constantine, introduced a seven-day week in 321 and designated Sunday (the day of the Sun) as the first day of the week and a day of rest and worship. Christians celebrated Sunday even before the decision of Emperor Constantine.

Today, in European countries, Sunday is considered the last day of the week. Sunday is the first day of the week in the USA, Canada, and some African countries.

According to the ISO 8601 international standard, Monday is considered the first day of the week, and Sunday is the last.

According to the Gregorian calendar, the first year of a century cannot begin on a Sunday. According to the Jewish calendar, no year can begin on a Sunday at all. If a month starts on a Sunday, then the thirteenth day of the month falls on Friday.

The Arabs call Sunday al ah1ad - "the first". In the names of this day, some Dagestan peoples preserved the Arabic root (darg. - alkh1at; lezg. - gyad; lac. - alkh1at).

Sunday for Christians is considered a holiday - the day when believers usually attend church. Apparently, this is what influenced the consolidation of the name of this day in the Avar language - gyat1an (“gyat1an-ruk” - church, building-temple). Kumyks call this day katty, which means "hard, hard, unchanging."

In most countries of the world (including Russia), Sunday is an official holiday. In particular, this is true for all countries of Europe, Northern and South America. In countries where Islam is the official religion, as well as in Israel, Sunday is a normal working day.

The names of all days of the week in Russian have their own language basis, except for Saturday (from the Hebrew Shabbat), and are ordinal numbers, except for Wednesday (other Russian middle, i.e. middle).

On the Arabic all these names have their own linguistic basis, but not all are ordinal numbers: the name of Saturday as Sabt - the Arabic word meaning "stop", is associated with the pre-Islamic tradition to stop work on this day, as on the Jewish Shabbat; The name of Friday al Jumg1a, which means "collective", on the contrary, appeared precisely in the Islamic period due to the significance of the collective performance of prayer on this day.

The names of most days of the week (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday) completely coincide in all Dagestan languages, and the name of Sunday is only in the Dargin, Lezgin and Lak languages. The roots of their own linguistic culture have been preserved:

In the name of Saturday: among the Lezgins - kish with a meaning coinciding with the Arabic as sabt; among the Laks - khuldun with the meaning "road", the day of going on the road; among the Kumyks - songlu with the meaning "next";

In the name of Sunday: among the Avars - gyat1an with the meaning "church", the day when they go to church; among the Kumyks - katty with the meaning "hard, hard".

Influence of the Arab-Muslim religious culture on the formation of their own language culture of each of the Dagestan peoples and the common everyday culture of all Dagestanis is obvious, and is confirmed by the example of the proposed small comparative analysis of the names of the days of the week.

Everything has its own meaning and value, and the desire to preserve oneself in it should become a natural need for every Dagestani.
