Does anybody know what the name of the days were in the Five or Six day week, or were they just the same as the normal names.

Пятидневка
Шестидневка
These words still exist.
I think these refer to the overall artificial week, though, and not individual days. I think, judging by the article, the names of the days stayed the same -- they just changed the days that a person would actually work. So you TATY, maybe would have worked Sunday through Thursday, leaving пятница и суббота как твои выходные дни. Или я -- не прав?Quote:

No, I think the weeks were 5 days long.Quote:
