I was just told that this 2-4 => sg.gen, 5 => pl.gen. rule works with
- nominative
- accusative which has the shape of nominative

For other cases the noun (when preceded by numeral)...

Sorry I messed up. Plural genitive of "неделя" is "НЕДЕЛЬ". So mainly I wondered why in this case it was plural genitive (instead of accusative) but in

"я бывал в пряти странах"

it is in...

Plural accusative is the same as plural nominative, which in this case would be недели. Because of ь-ending plural genitive should be неделей?

Thanks Olga.

"шесть недель" this is plural genitive? Why does it turn into genitive when it actually should be accusative (as in case of одну неделю).

я бывал в пряти странах.

In this case...

And how was it if I say "I was there for one/three/six weeks/months/years"?

я был там одну неделю / три недели / шесть неделей / один месяц / три месяца / шесть местяцов / один год / три года /...

>это правильно?

But it is plural (2 sentences). Would "вон те правильны" be correct?

эти правильны?

Он поехал в Москву две недели/ два дня/ два года назад
Он поехал в Москву пять недель/ пять дней/ пять лет назад

Ok, thanks for the profound answer.

How to say "he went to Moscow for a week / day / year / five days / five weeks"?

он поехал в москву на (одном) неделе / на дне / на годе / на пяти днях / на пяти неделях?
