In English, the days of the week are named for Norse gods (or the pantheon)… All except Saturday. Sunday… The sun Monday… The moon Tuesday… Tew/Tiw, Norse god of war and justice Wednesday… Wodin (Odin), the all father Thursday… Thor, God of lightning and thunder Friday… Freyja, the lady, goddess of love.

Except Saturday. The Norse called Saturday laundry day. Laugerdagr. Great word actually…

But the English wouldn’t have it so they went with the roman God Saturn for Saturday.
