How To Name the days in Bahasa Indonesia?

There are seven days in the week. We usually work five days of those seven days. These days are called ‘the working week’ or in bahasa we call it ‘Hari kerja’. Many people take two days off work and we call these days as ‘the weekend’ or in bahasa we call it ‘hari libur’. Monday or Senin is usually the first day of the week. Sunday or Minggu is considered a day of rest. In english, for saying days we use the prepostion ‘on’ . But in Indonesia, just use the prepostion ‘Hari’. So if you want to say days of the week, let’s say :

Hari senin, hari selasa, hari rabu, hari kamis, hari jumat, hari sabtu, hari minggu.
