Can you say j'ai du plan mercredi

Like, I have plans on Wednesday (being this Wednesday). You don't need an article if Wednesday is at the start of the sentence, but if it's in the middle?

Bonjour Jason !

"To have plans" is actually quite a tricky expression to translate. However, you are correct on your usage of "mercredi" to say "on Wednesday": the position in the sentence is irrelevant here.

To express "I have plans on Wednesday", meaning "I have things planned for that day.", in French you could say:
"J'ai quelque chose de prévu mercredi." (I have something planned)
or
"J'ai des choses de prévu mercredi." (I have planS)

I hope that's helpful!
À bientôt !

Hello, I had a similar question. Can we use 'Je vais au cinéma mardi instead of 'Mardi, je vais au cinéma'?
