Most Slavic languages share very similar patterns for the days of the week, often based on ordinal numbers (Monday as “after Sunday”, Tuesday as “second”, etc.) or older Church-Slavonic traditions.

You can spot families: West Slavic (Czech, Slovak, Polish, Kashubian, Sorbian), South Slavic (Slovenian, Croatian, Bosnian, Serbian, Macedonian, Bulgarian) and East Slavic (Belarusian, Ukrainian, Russian, Rusyn) – the table lets you see those correspondences at a glance.
