A week is a time unit equal to seven days. The English word week continues an Old English wice, ultimately from a Common Germanic . The Germanic word probably had a wider meaning prior to the adoption of the Roman calendar, perhaps "succession series", as suggested by Gothic The term week is sometimes expanded to refer to other time units comprising a few days. Such weeks of between 4 and 10 days have been used historically in various places.[1] Intervals longer than 10 days are not usually termed weeks as they are closer in length to the fortnight or the month than to the seven-day week. source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Week |
