Why do you use capital letters for the names of days of the week and months?
I mean the English speakers.

it's the rule of thumb, actually. All proper nouns should be written with a capital letter.
I'm just a bit curious about chinese calendar which when written in english, go with capital letters when in fact they are 'common nouns':
"Year of the Metal Tiger" for instance.

A noun is a person, place, or thing. A proper noun is a noun that is also a name. Proper nouns are usually capitalized in English. They could be names of people (Susan, Mike, George), names of places (Beijing, Nile, Russia, Johnstown), or names of things (Apple Computer, Saturday).
