How to use German weekdays
- German weekdays are nouns, so they are capitalized: Montag, not montag.
- am Montag means on Monday.
- A date also capitalizes the month, as in der 14. August.
Common mistakes
- Writing montag in lowercase.
- Mixing up Dienstag (Tuesday) and Donnerstag (Thursday).
- Saying on Montag instead of am Montag.
Common questions
- Are German weekdays capitalized?
- Yes. Montag is a noun, so it keeps a capital letter.
- How do you say on Monday in German?
- am Montag.
