== Days of the week (Dias da semana)==
 
The days in portuguese are very simple.
 
There should only be a certain care in writing because in Portuguese words have gender (masculine and feminine).
 
===Masculine days (Dias masculinos) ===                                                 
*Sunday (Domingo)
*Saturday (Sábado)
 
===Feminine days (Dias femininos)===
*Monday (Segunda)
*Tuesday (Terça)
*Wednesday (Quarta)
*Thursday (Quinta)
*Friday (Sexta)
 
For example, the writing in English "The saturday", translated into Portuguese would be "o sábado".
 
You can not put "A sábado", this way is wrong, the correct one would be "O sábado" with '''the definite article "O" to represent male when writing in Portuguese.'''
 
Likewise occurs with '''the definite article "A" that is used to represent female'''. For example, writing in English would be "The monday", translated into Portuguese would be "A segunda". You can not put the definite article "O" because "monday" is a feminine word.
 
Therefore it is very important to pay attention at the time of writing not to confuse the articles. Unlike English, where most words have no definite gender.

For example, the writing in English "The saturday", translated into Portuguese would be "o sábado".
(Por exemplo, a escrita em inglês "The saturday", traduzida para o portugês seria "o sábado")
 
 
You can not put "A sábado", this way is wrong, the correct one would be "O sábado" with '''the definite article "O" to represent male when writing in Portuguese.'''
(Não se pode colocar "a sábado", desse jeito está errado, o correto seria "o sábado" com '''o artigo definido "O" para representar masculino quando se está escrevendo em português'''.)
 
 
Likewise occurs with '''the definite article "A" that is used to represent female'''. For example, writing in English would be "The monday", translated into Portuguese would be "A segunda". You can not put the definite article "O" because "monday" is a feminine word.
 
(Da mesma forma ocorre com '''o artigo definido "A" que é usado para os dias femininos'''. Por exemplo, a escrita em inglês seria "The monday", traduzida para o português seria "A segunda". Não se pode colocar o artigo definido "O" porque "segunda" é uma palavra feminina.)
 
 
Therefore it is very important to pay attention at the time of writing not to confuse the articles. Unlike English, most words have no definite gender.
 
(Portanto é muito importante prestar atenção na hora da escrita para não confundir os artigos. Diferente do inglês que a maioria das palavras não tem gênero definido.)
