Questions & Answers about Cuối tuần, chúng tôi thường nghỉ ở nhà.
Literally, cuối = end and tuần = week, so cuối tuần = end (of the) week.
In practice, it’s just the normal way to say “weekend” in Vietnamese.
Cuối tuần normally means the whole weekend (Saturday + Sunday), like English on weekends.
If you need to be very specific, you add words:
- thứ Bảy – Saturday
- Chủ nhật – Sunday
But by default, cuối tuần is understood as “the weekend period”.
You can say vào cuối tuần, but you don’t have to.
- Cuối tuần, chúng tôi thường nghỉ ở nhà.
- Vào cuối tuần, chúng tôi thường nghỉ ở nhà.
Both mean essentially “On weekends, we usually stay at home.”
Vào is a preposition roughly like on / at here. Adding it can sound a bit more explicit or careful, but it’s very common to just start with Cuối tuần.
