Notes:

1 Note: For the days of the week above we can use 'fi' or omit it according to the way the sentence goes, but to say 'at the weekend' we cannot omit 'fi'. If we omitted it the sentence would look weird.2 Note: For the days of the week above we can use 'fi' or omit it according to the way the sentence goes, but to say 'at weekends' we cannot omit 'fi'.
