Days of the week in French: lundi to dimanche

Say the days and make a plan.

I can say the days of the week.

No capital letters, no "on"

Days of the week don't take a capital letter in French: lundi, mardi.

For "on Monday", just say the day: Je travaille lundi. With le it means every Monday: le lundi, je travaille.

Aujourd'hui (today) is one word with an apostrophe inside.

Je travaille lundi.
I'm working on Monday.
Le samedi, je ne travaille pas.
On Saturdays I don't work.
