    I’m English, not American but I see it as Saturday and Sunday are the two ends of the week. Like how a string has two ends. The weekend is both the start and the finishing end of the week.

      So, when someone asks if you are free the next two weekends, you assume they’re talking about the next Saturday (tail weekend) and the next Sunday (front weekend)?

      since we are in a temporal context here i would argue that there is a clear distrinction between beginning and end here

        End doesn’t always have to be the latter side of something though like I said earlier with the string analogy. The start is also an end.
