Questions & Answers about В выходные я люблю навести порядок в квартире.

Why is выходные in the plural? In English we say the weekend (singular).

In Russian, выходные is grammatically plural and literally means days off.

• выходной день = a (single) day off
• выходные (дни) = days off / the weekend

Russian normally refers to the weekend using this plural form выходные, even if you mean “this weekend” or “on weekends” in general. So:

• В выходные ≈ on the weekend / at weekends
• It is plural simply because Russian conceptualizes it as multiple days (Saturday + Sunday).
