Frequently Asked Questions
Why is 'domingos' masculine?
All days of the week in Spanish (lunes, martes, etc.) are masculine, regardless of whether they end in 'o' or 's'. Therefore, you must use the masculine article 'los' with 'domingos'.
If I want to say 'last Sunday' or 'next Sunday', should I use 'domingos'?
No. 'Domingos' is plural. For a single Sunday, you should use the singular form: 'el domingo pasado' (last Sunday) or 'el próximo domingo' (next Sunday).
