Saturday: Days of the Week Translation
INFORMATIVE
Tags: Saturday, Days, Week, Translation, Foreign, Language
Saturday is the sixth or seventh day of the week, between Friday and Sunday. It retains its Roman origin in English which is of the Roman god of agriculture Saturn. It's been called dies Saturni ("Saturn's Day"), through which form it enters into Old English as Sæternesdæg and evolves into its current form. Many of the other days of the week have adopted names of Saxon gods in Northern Europe in Old English.
In India, Saturday is Shanivar. It is based on Shani, the Vedic God manifested in the planet Saturn.
