Hi Sudabeh

Please have a look at this web page:

I think odd and even are not commonly used in English to refer to the days of the week.

My suggestion:

Iranian odd days

Iranian even days

Hi, dear E-Hamzeluyi. :)

Thanks for your remark. Yes, that's right, if they( English speaker) are speaking about the days of the week/month with even or odd numbers(dates), they use " even/odd days".

For example:

1-I should take this pill on even days and this one on odd days of the month. 

2-Vehicles with even last digits on their licence plate drive on even days of week and those with odd numbers on odd days of the week.

3-They operate on odd days of the week (1st, 3rd, 5th....) in February and March.

 

PS:

By googling "even/ odd days of the week" I found that they might be used by non-English speakers like the following phrases and by specifying the days of the week:

On odd days of the week (Monday, Wednesday,and Friday)

On even days of the week (Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday)

Like in:

1-Basically, on even days of the week, i.e. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday you must park on one of the road.

2-In this case one parent is instructed that on even days of the week (Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays) she or he is to be completely in charge of parenting ...

Very good

So, odd and even days have different referents in Persian and English. While for example Tuesday is considered an odd day in Persian, it is an even day in English (if used at all).

After all is said and done, it is preferable to use odd and even to talk about dates, whether dates in a week or dates in a month.

Thanks, 

Yes, since the first day of the week is different in Iran.

Yes, exactly! :)

مثلا توی ایران اگه بگن روزای زوج میتونی با پلاک زوج بری توی طرح ترافیک ، همه میدونن روزای زوج هفته منظور هست ، اما توی انگلیسی با گفتن همین جمله گویا منظورشون روزهای زوج ماه هست.

اگه بخوایم به انگلیسی بگیم "چه روزهایی کلاس داری؟ روزهای زوج یا فرد؟" (و منظورمون روزهای زوج/فرد هفته باشه چی باید بگیم؟) ( البته فرض بر اینکه این مکالمه توی امریکا داره صورت میگیره ، که اون قضیه تفاوت روزهای هفته وجود نداشته باشه.)

(نظر شخصی بنده)

بهتره برای دوری از ابهام، برای روزهای هفته از زوج و فرد استفاده نکنیم. گزینه های دیگری هم هست مانند

On what days do you have classes?

سلام محمد جان! 

من هم با نظر E-Hamzelyui عزيز موافقم، در لينكي هم كه ايشون ارائه دادند، يكي از كاربران-khoff - در جواب پست دوم إيمان تقوي اين جوابو داده:

Not clear at all to most people...

As far as class schedules, in an American college or university students have "Monday-Wednesday-Friday (MWF) classes" (which typically meet for one hour at a time), and "Tuesday-Thursday (TTh) classes" which typically meet for an hour and a half each time. Most American schools do not have class on Saturday or Sunday.

منم موافقم ، به هر حال گاهی واژه‌ای یا اصطلاحی جوری در کشوری یا فرهنگی جا می‌افته که نمیشه توی کشور یا فرهنگی دیگه دقیقا به همون شکل ازش استفاده کرد.
مرسی از نظرت. :)

بله، همينطوره. گاهي وقت ها به اين نتيجه مي رسم كه انگار در بعضي جهات زبان فارسي خيلي flexible تر و كاملتر از خيلي زبان ها از جمله انگليسيه، كه البته بخش مهمي اش تحت تاثير فرهنگمونه. :)  

خواهش مي كنم. :)
