Hi Central Kurdish learners! 😊
In this lesson, we are going to learn the days of the week in Central Kurdish. Knowing these words is important for daily conversation, scheduling appointments, and many other aspects of daily life. Plus, it's always helpful to impress native speakers by knowing local expressions!

Days of the Week[edit | edit source]
Central Kurdish has a five-day workweek. The weekend consists of Friday and Saturday, like in other Middle Eastern countries.
Here are the days of the week in Central Kurdish:
Central Kurdish | Pronunciation | English |
---|---|---|
رۆژی شەممە | roji şemame | Monday |
رۆژی دووشەممە | roji duşemame | Tuesday |
رۆژی سێشەممە | roji se şemame | Wednesday |
رۆژی چوارشەممە | roji çwar şemame | Thursday |
هەینی | haini | Friday |
شەممە | şemame | Saturday |
یەکشەممە | yek şemame | Sunday |
As you can see, the days of the week in Central Kurdish are quite straightforward, with most of them ending in "ەممە" (emme) which means "day" in Kurdish.
Here is an example dialogue so you can see these words in context:
- Person 1: سڵاو، ئەمەش چا کەوتوو پێدرا؟ (Slaw, emeş ca kevotuw pedera?) (Hello, how was your day today?)
- Person 2: چەم جوان دا دۆكتۆریە، بەجۆرمی دوو شەممە دۆزیم. تۆ چی کرتی پێدرای؟ (Chem jawan da doktoriye, bejormi du şemame dozim. To chi krti pedray?) (I am young, a doctor, I work two days a week. What about you?)
One thing to note is that talking about Friday is a sensitive topic in Iraq, Kurdistan, and other Muslim countries because it is the day of worship in Islam. So, it's best to be mindful of this when engaging in conversation.
If you want to practice more with these words, you can use the Find native speakers and ask them any questions you may have! And, if you want to expand your Central Kurdish vocabulary, you can check out the "Days and Months" section of your language learning platform. Studying and practicing regularly is the best way to improve your skills.
I hope you found this lesson useful! If you have any questions, please ask them in the comments section below.
