Basque is oen of the oldest and most myesterious languages in Europe and possibly, in the world. Located in a small corner of Spain where France and the westernmost tip of the Pyrenees meet.

In Basque language, Monday is called Astelehena, Tuesday Asteartea, Wednesday Asteazkena, thursday Osteguna, Friday Ostirala, Saturday Larunbata and Sunday Igandea. It is interesting to point out that the "aste" bit in these words means week, "lehen" means first, "arte" means intermediate and "azken" means last in basque language.
