Talk:Saturday

Common noun
I have moved the following usage notes from the article because I believe them to be false in that these usages are still usages of the proper noun.


 * ====Usage notes====
 * As with the other days of the week, Saturday: is often used as a common noun. As a proper noun, it refers collectively to the day across all weeks:
 * Saturday is my favorite day of the week.
 * As a common noun, it refers in the singular to any one Saturday, or in the plural to a set of Saturdays:
 * Let’s get together on the Saturday after next.
 * There are only two Saturdays left before your birthday.

If anyone disagrees, then I am happy to discuss this, or to restore it to the article with a request for confirmation.  D b f  i  r  s   19:01, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

UK English pronunciation
It is stated that UK English uses /sɑt/ as the first syllable, which seems to be what the UK female voice says. But some quick googling and checking YouTube videos; Brits seems to go with /sæt/ instead. It also sounds like UK male voice also use /s*t/, so I have added it as the first pronunciation, but I've left /sɑt/ as the second pronunciation. It would be a good idea to mark the second one by what dialect it is. Liggliluff (talk) 10:42, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
