Blue

wednesday
wodensday
We call it woensdag
wednesday comes wōdnesdæg, or woden/wodenaz' day, aka odin's day (wodin is the old german for odin)
>Pagan gods
No.
It comes from Scotland.
It refers to the day when the bedding hay is changed. A corruption of waddingday which turned into the other uses.
>saturday is Sobota or sabbathday in polish
>literally having a jewish day
>Polish
God of Israel > puny pagan gods

>It comes from Scotland.

Lol no, completely off. It's Odins day.
Just like how Thursday is Thor's day and Friday is Freyr's day. The Latin/Romance names for the week days are also pagan gods you know. Mercredi means Mercurious day etc.
You never had it to begin with.
in irish it means fast day
Again you are wrong.
Thursday comes from Scottish "fuir" which means many things but something to do with travel. So fuirsday is the market day.
Here is the mentally ill scot again.
Not him but in Swedish it's different.
Måndag - Måne's Day (Norse God)
Tisdag - Týr's Day (Norse God)
Onsdag - Odin's Day (you know)
Torsdag - Thor's Day (yep)
Fredag - Freja's Day (Norse Goddess)
Lördag - Wash day (From the old word "löga" means to wash)
Söndag - Sol/Sunna's day (Norse Goddess)
That cant be right
We didn't fully drop Norse Mythology. There's still Thor's day, Freyja's day and Týr's day. No Wōden, though.
Samstag is named after Sabbath which is named after Saturn.
Duh.
The only time Scotland had significant contact in Sweden is when we ran it in the 30 years war.
I'm not.
During the 30 years war and others the words came out of Scotland into those countries.
>During the 30 years war and others the words came out of Scotland into those countries.
Can you please ask whoever taught you this why they lied
It's just that God awful Scots fag trolling you as usual.
He is truly insuffurable
>tfw the only nordic remnant left in the Icelandic weekday names is "Laugardagur" or pool day
>the rest of them are soulless or post-christianization names like Miðviku dagur (midweek day) -wednesday or föstudagur (fasting day) - friday
What could have been...
shame!
Maandag - Maan Dag (same)
Dinsdag - Din/Teiwaz/Tyr Dag (same)
Woensdag - Wodans Dag (same)
Donderdag - Donder dag (Thunder Day, named after Donar/Thor)
Vrijdag - Vrij Dag (Freda's day)
Zaterdag - Saturnus Dag (Saturnsday)
Zondag - Zon dag (sun day, same)
Also i wrote a huge report on Germanic Paganism and know a decent amount about the subject so if anyone has questions
What's the second-most important historic source of information on this topic? The most important one is of course the works of Snorri Sturluson. Individual rune stones can't offer too much information, i suppose.
fixed
faroes should be green. Ony people from suðuroy say ónsdagur, the rest of us (90%) say mikudagur.
unironically Teutonic Mythology by the brothers Grimm yes the same ones who wrote all the fairy tales, they basically went across Germany and the Low Countries writing down all the folk tales and stories that still had a lot of pagan origins.
and for a primary source by a Danish priest and it's all written in latin but i forgot his name he's very anti pagan though
Woden is the Old English (Anglo-Saxon) name.
Absolutely heretic
Why didn't the church fix this in blue countries? No wonder anglos and nordics act like possessed by demons
Lmao
