Names of days

Periodically, discussion pops up as to what to call the days of the week.  Going with literal translations for each day gets us some pretty clunky words and we run into problems quickly because most of the days are based on gods that are not in the Mando myths (though one could probably find enough significant Mando myths and people). Also, the in-universe Mando calendar (probably) only uses a five-day week, and we need to name seven days, which introduces more problems. All of these hurdles make it more of a problem than it's worth to come up with something that sounds "right" for anyone expect for an author designing a system for their alternate-universe fiction.

Assuming we are trying to figure out what to call the days on Earth (and not in-universe), the easiest way to adapt our English names for the days is to substitute tuur for day. So:

Because calendars can vary by planetary system, I could see Mandos in-universe going this route or using local names, because they are referring to someone else's date system, and not their own. It's also quite likely that, being scattered and having no strong centralized government, Mandalorians use Galactic Standard Calendar as their common temporal point of reference because it so widely used. 

Mandoa.ru and some fan dialects mostly uses words invented by a language enthusiast called Yatenari, which are based on the Resol'nare:

Yatenari had slightly different spellings for some of them and named Saturday arue'tuur and Sunday jetii'tuur. For the curious, Yatenari's reasoning for the last two:

> 6. day = arue'tuur => derived from aru'e (enemy) or aruetii (outsider), since the day doesn't exist in actual Mando weeks and can be used to denote a day that will "never arrive"

> 7. day = jetii'tuur => derived from Jetii (Jedi) and is either the seventh day or the equivalent of "Calendas Graecas" etc.

Someone on a language team that I'm also on struck down these names as too strange. That person instead suggested going with numbering them (such as sol'tuur, tad'tuur, ehn'tuur, cuir'tuur, etc.), as that seemed more in line with the practical nature of in-universe Mandos. The problem with this method is that it can be hard to distinguish whether the speaker is referring to the second day of the week, for example, or "two days," as well as the potential confusion with the name for the fifth day. As far as I can tell, the team never accepted preferred convention.

Personally, I've toyed with using ordinal numbers with day of the week and weeks of the year, because they seem easy and obvious, with Monday being the first day because a culture focused on constant warfare gets a day off whenever it comes up, not based on some set system. But I haven't done enough journal writing (neither private nor, more relevantly, publicly) to establish this as a convention.

Finally, considering that the original conlang author used "X number of days after Geonosis" in the books, perhaps in-universe Mandos also used a "X number of days after some event" system. Perhaps even picking a new event no later than reaching the 9999th day, because the current numbering system that we have doesn't go any higher than that. If teaching Mandalorian history is part of the "educate your children" action in the Resol'nare, then dating everything from a certain point cements that event as culturally important to all Mandalorians.
