Hi Ewe learners! 😊
In this lesson, we will learn how to say the different days of the week in Ewe. Knowing the days of the week is essential for daily communication and scheduling activities. Let's get started!
Finish this lesson and explore these related pages:Say Hello and Greetings in Ewe, Geography, Colors & Clothes.
Days of the Week[edit | edit source]
Here are the seven days of the week in Ewe:
| Ewe | Pronunciation | English |
|---|---|---|
| Dzoɖa | dzoh-dah | Sunday |
| Blɔɖa | blow-dah | Monday |
| Kɔɖa | koh-dah | Tuesday |
| ɖaɖa | dah-dah | Wednesday |
| ɖɔɖa | doh-dah | Thursday |
| meɖa | meh-dah | Friday |
| Memleɖa | mehm-leh-dah | Saturday |
It is important to note that Ewe days of the weeks are based on literal translations. For instance, Memleɖa is translated as "resting day", which is similar to what we call "Saturday" in English.
Fun fact: Did you know that Ewe people celebrate a festival called Hogbetsotso every first Saturday of November? The festival celebrates the migration of the Ewe people from Notsie in present-day Togo to their current settlements in Ghana and other countries in West Africa.
Now we will practice using these words in context. Let's say that two friends are planning their activities for the week.
- Person 1: Blɔɖa be na ɖenyigba. (Monday is my busy day.)
- Person 2: Mawu be nye li meɖa. (I will go to church on Friday.)
- Person 1: Meɖa ƒe no wo be? (What do you have planned for Saturday?)
- Person 2: Memleɖa me nya alõŋ. (I will relax on Saturday.)
