Days of the Week in Bisaya

Hi everyone! Today's topic is Days of the Week in Bisaya.

Philippines was conquered for more than 300 years by the Spaniards. Our language has mixed of native and Spanish words. You may noticed too that some of our names are of Spanish origin.

One perfect example is the days of the week. There's just a slight difference on the spelling and pronunciation.

Monday - Lunes
Tuesday -  Martes
Wednesday - Miyerkules
Thursday - Huwebes
Friday - Biernes
Saturday - Sabado
Sunday - Domingo
Week - Semana
