Imperial calendar

Calendar established at the creation of the Third Imperium as a universal calendar reform. Dates count from the founding of the Imperium, the year “zero ” Dates before zero are negative, dates after are positive. For example, Terra discovered jump drive in -2431. The Imperium was founded in zero.

The year is divided into 365 standard days, which are grouped into 52 weeks of seven days each The lengths of days and weeks is a legacy of Terran domination during the second Imperium. Days are numbered consecutively, beginning with one. The first day of the year is a holiday and is not part of any week. For example, the first day (Holiday) of the year 1116 is 001-1116. The last day of the year is 365-1116.

Days of the week are : 
Wonday Tuday Thirday Forday Fiday Sixday Senday

Je a dit…

Intéressante transformation des noms des jours :

- "Monday" (lundi) devient "Wonday", jeu de mots avec "One day" (jour un);
- "Tuesday" (mardi) devient "Tuday", jeu de mots avec "Two day" (jour deux);
- "Thursday" (jeudi) devient "Thirday", jeu de mots avec "Third day" (3ème jour);
- "Friday" (vendredi) devient "Forday", jeu de mots avec "Four day" (jour quatre), et plus encore "Fiday", jeu de mots avec "Five day" (jour cinq);
- "Saturday" (samedi) devient "Sixday", jeu de mot avec "Six day" (jour six)
- "Sunday (dimanche) devient "Senday", jeu de mots avec "Seven day" (jour sept).
Finalement, seul "Wednesday" (mercredi) n'entre pas dans le schéma de transformation.

Peut-on faire de même en français ?

"Lundi" peut devenir aisément "Undi" (jour un).
"Mardi" ... "Deudi" ?
"Mercredi" ... "Troidi" ?
"Jeudi" ... "Quadi" ?
"Vendredi" ... "Cindi" ?
"Samedi" ... "Sixdi" ?
"Dimanche" ... "Sepdi" ?

Non, cela ne marche pas aussi bien.
