[Idiom] Week end

[Will17]

Hi again!

If I'm talking to several people, what's the right expression: Enjoy your week end or Enjoy your week-ends? (They aren't going to spend the week-end together).

------------

Another question: If I'm saying good bye to someone and the conversation is taking place (Takes place?) on a Tuesday, can I say "Have a nice week-end" or would it be better to say "Have a nice end of the week?" (In this case, I'm not refering to Saturday and Sunday).

Cheers
W

1) "Enjoy your weekend" is OK.
2) It's early enough in the week to say, "Enjoy your week", "Enjoy the rest of your week", "Have a great week". But on Wednesday or Thursday I would say, "Enjoy the rest of your week".

Which is the right tense in this case: the Present simple or Continuous?

In your example on Tuesday, if you had been discussing something special occurring on the weekend, then "Have a nice weekend" would be appropriate. Otherwise, "have a nice/great rest of the week".

'is taking place' - it is ongoing with 'I'm saying' so is in the same tense. Note: 'goodbye' and 'weekend' are each 1 word.
