Days of Week - 'Sathiye Dawas '
It is very nice for you to learn, how to properly say the days of week in sinhala it is really easy once you get a little familiar. Knowing this would always help you with running your errands daily. So just learn it by heart and have a good practice.
Days of week
is called as Sathye Dawas
. Where the word Sathya
stands for week and Dawas
stands for days. And below listed shows you how each day is pronounced in Sri Lanka's Language. It is a little bit hard to understand for you when it is written in sinhala letters, because for that you need to learn read and write too...
So I have shown you here how to pronounce the word using English letters. For a example Sunday = Irida which will be read as I-r-i-d-a.
Sunday | -Irida |
Monday | -San-du-da |
Tuesday | -An-ga-ha-ru-waa-daa |
Wednesday | -Badaa-daa |
Thursday | -Brahas-pathin-daa |
Friday | -Siku-raa-daa |
Saturday | -Sena-su-raa-daa |
So now you know Sathye Dawas ;) . Below is just to give you some idea on Sri Lankan Holidays it really is pretty much than what you get in your country I guess, So just go through it. When you live in Sri Lanka it will be very useful. And really Sri Lankan's are that lucky they get at least one holiday per month.
