Friday is one of the main characters of Daniel Defoe's 1719 novel Robinson Crusoe and its sequel The Farther Adventures of Robinson Crusoe. Robinson Crusoe names the man Friday, with whom he cannot at first communicate, because they first meet on that day. The character is the source of the expression "Man Friday", used to describe a male personal assistant or servant, especially one who is particularly competent or loyal. Current usage also includes "Girl Friday". It is possible that a Miskito pirate by the name of Will became the inspiration for the character Friday.

  • Vendredo estas fikcia karibano, savita de Robinson Crusoe de malamikoj. Li iĝas servisto de Crusoe, kiu nomas lin laŭ la semajna tago de lia saviĝo kaj instruas al li la anglan lingvon. Li helpas al Crusoe organizi la vivon sur la insulo, kie rompiĝis ties ŝipo, kaj plani foriron. Kiam Crusoe sukcesas reiri al Eŭropo, Vendredo akompanas lin al Anglio kaj Portugalio. En plia novelo, "The Further Adventures of Robinson Crusoe" (la postaj aventuroj de Robinson Crusoe), Vendredo estas mortigita en mara batalo. William Takaku ludis lian rolon en la filmo Robinsono Kruso (1997). (eo)
