days of the week in Azerbaijani 😯 https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/%C5%9F%C9%99nb%C9%99#

  • şənbə - from persian, which comes from hebrew "sabbath" (day of rest?)
  • bazar - market
  • bazar ertəsi - day after the market day
  • çərşənbə axşamı - day before the fourth day after the rest day
  • çərşənbə - fourth day after the rest day
  • cümə axşamı - day before the gathering day?
  • cümə - gathering?

only 3 days count: rest - market - gathering. The rest is before or after
