  Having read about the origin of the names of the days of the week in
  
  different languages and cultures, I wondered where the English names of
  
  the days of the week came from.
  
  The relevance of this study is to learn everything about the history of the
  
  names of the English days of the week, because memorizing these words
  
  causes difficulties for children. I think after my research, it will be easier
  
  for me and them to learn these words.
  
  Research objectives:
  study the origin of the names of English days of the week

  You know the names of the days of the week:Sunday,
  
  Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
  
  But do you know where the names come from?

  Tasks
  
  consider the theory of the origin of the names of the days of the week in English
  The object of research:
  the theory of the origin of the names of the days
  Subject of research:
  English names of the days of the week.
  The hypothesis of the study is that the names of
  the English days of the week have nothing to
  do with numbering, as, for example, with
  Slavic nationalities. They are associated with
  the names of ancient mythical Gods.

  Sunday
  If you look carefully at the word Sunday, you may guess
  
  that it comes from Sun-day, the day of the Sun.

  Monday
  The name of the second day, Monday, comes from the word
  Moon; so Monday is the day of the Moon.
  The names of the other days of the week are connected with
  the names of different gods and planets.

  Tuesday
  
  
  The name of this day comes from the name of the one-
  armed god of war Tiu, who was worshipped by the ancient
  Germans. The Roman conquerors brought their name to
  Tuesday - Martis, that is, the day of Mars. But the Germans
  used its local equivalent for the name of the day and began
  to call Tuesday Tiw's day.

  Wednesday
  
  This day of the week for the Romans was dedicated to
  Mercury, but the northerners went their own way here.
  They renamed the day in honor of their supreme god named
  Woden (today we know him as Odin ).Once this word
  sounded likeWōdnesdæg, but over the past couple of
  millennia it has transformed into Wednesday.

  Thursday
  The word Thursday comes from the name of the god Thor.
  Thor was the German god of thunder, and even now you
  can sometimes meet the word Thunderday which is the
  other name for Thursday.

  Friday
  The word Friday comes from the name of the old German
  goddess Frig who was the goddess of beauty.

  Saturday
  The last day of the week is Saturday. The first part of this
  word, Saturn, is Latin. It is the name of the god and the
  planet. The second part of the word is English. So Saturday
  is the day of Saturn.

  My hypothesis that the English names of the days of the week are not related
  
  to numbering has been confirmed. But they are connected not only with the
  
  ancient Gods, but also with the names of the planets. The modern language
  
  is influenced by historical processes that took place long ago. To better
  
  memorize foreign words, you need to study also mythology.
