In Russian NO one days of week name is numeric. 3 of it's names are based on the numbers, but vtornik =/= vtoroi chetverg =/= chetveryi pyatnitsa =/= pyatyi Using numbers of a days where names must be used is impossible. And when somebody trying to use day _numbers_ he must remember, that not in all cultures week begins from the same day. There are some traditions, in which the first day of the week is a sunday, and some - with the first day - monday. -- Best regards, Serge mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
