Easiest Day of the Week to Remember
In my opinion, the easiest one to remember is Friday – Shukarvaar. Shukar means thankfulness or gratitude, so Shukarvaar reminds me of, “thank God it’s Friday”.
Using Hindi Days of the Week in Conversation
In terms of using these words in conversation many people drop the ‘vaar’ and say, “shanee” (Saturday) or “som” (Monday). For example,
“Party kub hai?” (when is the party?)
“Shanee ko” (on Saturday)

Tomorrow vs. Yesterday: How To Tell the Difference
The Hindi word for yesterday and tomorrow is “kal”. So how do you tell the difference? From context and more specifically from the verb.
Christmas is tomorrow = Christmas kal hain.
Christmas was yesterday = Christmas kal thaa.
Hain means “is” and Thaa means “was”. That’s how you can tell if the conversation is about whether Christmas is tomorrow or it was yesterday.
