This popup menu lets you select the first (leftmost) day of the week: either Sunday or Monday.
Sunday: the first day of the week. Derived from late Latin “dies solis” - day of the sun.
Monday: the second day of the week. Derived from late Latin “Lunæ dies” - moon’s day (compare French Lundi).
Tuesday: the third day of the week. Derived from Old High German “Zîo,” an ancient Teutonic diety, identified with the Roman Mars; whence “Tíwesdag,” rendering late Latin “dies Martis” (compare French Mardi).
Wednesday: the fourth day of the week. “The day of (the god) Woden,” a translation of late Latin “Mercurii dies” whence the name of the day in the Romance languages.
Thursday: the fifth day of the week. Derived mainly from Old Norse “Tórsdagr” ‘day of Thunor or Thor.’ Middle Germanic Donderday (modern German Donnerstag) derives from late Latin ”dies Jovis” (compare French Jeudi).
Friday: the sixth day of the week. Derived from Old English “Frígedæg” ‘day of (the goddess) Fríg’ from Old Norse “Frigg” the wife of Odin.
Saturday: the seventh day of the week. A half-translated adoption of Latin “Saturni dies” ‘day of (the planet) Saturn.’
