Signification
States the day of the week for tomorrow.
Contexte culturel
The term 'Sextou' is a cultural phenomenon. When someone says 'Amanhã é sexta', the immediate response is often 'Sextou!', meaning the weekend has effectively begun. In Portugal, the use of 'feira' is slightly more common in formal contexts than in Brazil, where it is almost always dropped in speech. In Luanda, 'amanhã' is used strictly for scheduling, but social time can be more fluid. 'Amanhã é dia de mambo' might refer to a specific event or task. The week starts on Sunday (Domingo). Therefore, Monday is 'Segunda-feira' (Second-day). This is unique among Romance languages.
Drop the 'Feira'
In Brazil, always drop '-feira' in casual talk. Saying 'Amanhã é segunda' makes you sound like a local.
No Prepositions
Never say 'No amanhã'. It's a very common English-speaker mistake. Just 'Amanhã' is enough.
