That’s what I do:

11.111987 ENTER 1 DATE —> 12.11.1987 4 (or 11.12.1987 4, depending on your setting)

It shows the next day, but the day of the week is correct, at least in Portuguese:-)

1: Domingo (Sunday)
2: 2ª (Monday)
3: 3ª (Tuesday)
4: 4ª (Wednesday)
5: 5ª (Thursday)
6: 6ª (Friday)
7: Sábado (Saturday)
