Saturday is the day of the week between Friday and Sunday. No later than the 2nd century, the Romans named Saturday diēs Sāturnī («Saturn’s Day») for the planet Saturn, which controlled the first hour of that day, according to Vettius Valens.[1][2] The day’s name was introduced into West Germanic languages and is recorded in the Low German languages such as Middle Low German satersdach, saterdach, Middle Dutch saterdag (Modern Dutch zaterdag) and Old English Sæternesdæġ, Sæterndæġ or Sæterdæġ.[3]
Origins
Saturday is named after the planet Saturn, which in turn was named after the Roman god Saturn
Between the 1st and 3rd centuries AD, the Roman Empire gradually replaced the eight-day Roman nundinal cycle with the seven-day week. The astrological order of the days was explained by Vettius Valens and Dio Cassius (and Chaucer gave the same explanation in his Treatise on the Astrolabe). According to these authors, it was a principle of astrology that the heavenly bodies presided, in succession, over the hours of the day. The association of the weekdays with the respective deities is thus indirect, the days are named for the planets, which were in turn named for the deities.
The Germanic peoples adapted the system introduced by the Romans but glossed their indigenous gods over the Roman deities in a process known as interpretatio germanica. In the case of Saturday, however, the Roman name was borrowed directly by West Germanic peoples, apparently because none of the Germanic gods were considered to be counterparts of the Roman god Saturn. Otherwise Old Norse and Old High German did not borrow the name of the Roman god (Icelandic laugardagur, German Samstag).
In the Eastern Orthodox Church, Saturdays are days on which the Theotokos (Mother of God) and All Saints are commemorated, and the day on which prayers for the dead are especially offered, in remembrance that it was on a Saturday that Jesus lay dead in the tomb. The Octoechos contains hymns on these themes, arranged in an eight-week cycle, that are chanted on Saturdays throughout the year. At the end of services on Saturday, the dismissal begins with the words: «May Christ our True God, through the intercessions of his most-pure Mother, of the holy, glorious and right victorious Martyrs, of our reverend and God-bearing Fathers…». For the Orthodox, Saturday — with the sole exception of Holy Saturday — is never a strict fast day. When a Saturday falls during one of the fasting seasons (Great Lent, Nativity Fast, Apostles’ Fast, Dormition Fast) the fasting rules are always lessened to an extent. The Great Feast of the Exaltation of the Cross and the Beheading of St. John the Baptist are normally observed as strict fast days, but if they fall on a Saturday or Sunday, the fast is lessened.
Name and associations
Today, Saturday has two names in modern Standard German. The first word, Samstag, is always used in Austria, Liechtenstein, and the German-speaking part of Switzerland, and generally used in southern and western Germany. It derives from Old High German sambaztac, the first part (sambaz) of which derives from Greek Σάββατο, sávvato and this Greek word derives from Hebrew שבת, Shabbat. However, the current German word for Sabbath is Sabbat. The second name for Saturday in German is Sonnabend, which derives from Old High German sunnunaband, and is closely related to the Old English word sunnanæfen. It means literally «Sun eve», i.e., «The day before Sunday». Sonnabend is generally used in northern and eastern Germany, and was also the official name for Saturday in East Germany. Even if these two names are used regionally differently, they are usually understood at least passively in the other part.
In West Frisian there are also two words for Saturday. In Wood Frisian it is saterdei, and in Clay Frisian it is sneon, derived from snjoen, a combination of Old Frisian sunne, meaning sun and joen, meaning eve.
In the Westphalian dialects of Low Saxon, in East Frisian Low Saxon and in the Saterland Frisian language, Saturday is called Satertag, also akin to Dutch zaterdag, which has the same linguistic roots as the English word Saturday. It was formerly thought that the English name referred to a deity named Sætere who was venerated by the pre-Christian peoples of north-western Germany, some of whom were the ancestors of the Anglo-Saxons. Sætere was identified as either a god associated with the harvest of possible Slav origin,[4] or another name for Loki[5] a complex deity associated with both good and evil; this latter suggestion may be due to Jacob Grimm.[6] However, modern dictionaries derive the name from Saturn.[7][8][9][10]
In most languages of India, Saturday is Shanivāra, vāra meaning day, based on Shani, the Hindu god manifested in the planet Saturn. Some Hindus fast on Saturdays to reverse the ill effects of Shani as well as pray to and worship the deity Hanuman.[11][12] In the Thai solar calendar of Thailand, the day is named from the Pali word for Saturn, and the color associated with Saturday is purple.[citation needed] In Pakistan, Saturday is Hafta, meaning the week. In Eastern Indian languages like Bengali Saturday is called শনিবার, Shonibar meaning Saturn’s Day and is the first day of the Bengali Week in the Bengali calendar.
In Islamic countries, Fridays are considered as the last or penultimate day of the week and are holidays along with Thursdays or Saturdays; Saturday is called سبت, Sabt (cognate to Sabbath) and it is the first day of the week in many Arab countries but the Last Day in other Islamic countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, Central Asian countries.
In Japanese, the word Saturday is 土曜日, doyōbi, meaning ‘soil day’ and is associated with 土星, dosei: Saturn (the planet), literally meaning «soil star». Similarly, in Korean the word Saturday is 토요일, tho yo il, also meaning earth day. The element Earth was associated with the planet Saturn in Chinese astrology and philosophy.
The modern Māori name for Saturday, rāhoroi, literally means «washing-day» – a vestige of early colonized life when Māori converts would set aside time on the Saturday to wash their whites for Church on Sunday.[13] A common alternative Māori name for Saturday is the transliteration hātarei.
Quakers traditionally referred to Saturday as «Seventh Day», eschewing the «pagan» origin of the name.[14]
In Scandinavian countries, Saturday is called lördag, lørdag, or laurdag, the name being derived from the old word laugr/laug (hence Icelandic name Laugardagur), meaning bath, thus Lördag equates to bath-day. This is due to the Viking practice of bathing on Saturdays.[15] The roots lör, laugar and so forth are cognate to the English word lye, in the sense of detergent. The Finnish and Estonian names for the day, lauantai and laupäev, respectively, are also derived from this term.
Position in the week
The international standard ISO 8601 sets Saturday as the sixth day of the week. The three Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) regard Saturday as the seventh day of the week. As a result, many refused the ISO 8601 standards and continue to use Saturday as their seventh day.
Saturday Sabbath
For Jews, Messianics, Seventh Day Baptists and Seventh-day Adventists, the seventh day of the week, known as Shabbat (or Sabbath for Seventh-day Adventists), stretches from sundown Friday to nightfall Saturday and is the day of rest. Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches distinguish between Saturday (Sabbath) and the Lord’s Day (Sunday). Other Protestant groups, such as Seventh-day Adventists, hold that the Lord’s Day is the Sabbath, according to the fourth commandment (Exodus 20:8), and not Sunday.
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work.
— Exodus 20:10 King James Version
Astrology
In astrology, Saturn is associated with Saturday, its planet’s symbol 
, and the astrological signs Capricorn and Aquarius.

MORE ABOUT SATURDAY
What does Saturday mean?
Saturday is the day between Friday and Sunday.
In much of North and South America, where most countries (including the U.S. and Canada) consider the calendar week to begin on Sunday, Saturday is the seventh and final day of the week. In other places, including in much of Europe and Asia, the week is considered to begin on Monday, making Saturday the sixth day of the week. In parts of the Middle East and other places, the week is considered to begin on Saturday.
Regardless of when the week officially begins, in many places Saturday is considered (along with Sunday) one of the two days that make up the weekend, during which many people do not work. In contrast, the other five days, Monday through Friday, are considered weekdays, which make up the workweek (or school week). In this sense, Saturday is not considered a weekday but a weekend day.
Many people’s favorite day is Saturday because it’s the official start of the weekend, with another weekend day ahead of it. (Friday evening is often considered the unofficial start of the weekend, but Friday is still considered a weekday.) Like the weekend itself, Saturday is associated with rest, relaxation, and freedom from responsibility—along with the free time to do whatever one wants.
In Judaism, Saturday is Shabbat (or the Sabbath), a day of rest and religious observance (technically lasting from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday).
The word Saturdays can be used as an adverb meaning every Saturday or on Saturdays, as in I work Saturdays or The shop is only open Saturdays.
To indicate the general time of day during which something will happen on a Saturday, the word can be followed by the general time, as in Saturday morning, Saturday afternoon, Saturday evening, and Saturday night.
Example: I love a Saturday without plans, when I can do whatever I want all day.
Where does Saturday come from?
The first records of the word Saturday come from before 900. It comes from the Middle English Saturdai, from the Old English Saternesdæg, which is a partial translation of the Latin Sāturnī diēs, meaning “Saturn’s day.”
The ancient Romans named the day we call Saturday after the planet Saturn, which was named for their god of agriculture. This naming system was based on the one credited to the ancient Babylonians, who are thought to be the first to use a seven-day week and who named each of the seven days after planets and other celestial bodies.
As is the case for Saturday, we still base the names of some days on celestial bodies—Sunday is “Sun’s day” and Monday is “moon’s day”. The rest of the days of the week are named for mythological figures, but along the way the Roman gods were swapped out for figures from Norse and Germanic mythology. Tuesday derives its name from Tiu, war god of Anglo-Saxon mythology. Wednesday gets its name from Woden, the Anglo-Saxon equivalent of Odin. Thursday is named for Thor, hammer-wielding god of thunder (and son of Odin). Friday is thought to be named for love goddess Freya or chief goddess Frigg, wife of Odin.
In Christianity, Holy Saturday is the day before Easter.
In U.S. history, the Saturday Night Massacre is a name for the events of October 20, 1973, during which senior government officials resigned to protest actions by President Richard Nixon related to the Watergate scandal.
In pop culture, Saturday Night Live is a long-running sketch comedy show that’s broadcast live on Saturday night.

WHAT DOES SATURDAY MEAN IN ENGLISH?
Saturday
Saturday is the day of the week following Friday and preceding Sunday. Saturday is the seventh and therefore last day of the week according to many commonly used calendars, but it is the second-to-last day of the week according to ISO 8601. The Romans named Saturday dies Saturni no later than the 2nd century for the planet Saturn, which controlled the first hour of that day, according to Vettius Valens. When the day’s name was introduced into English and other Germanic languages, however, the name was selected as a calque of the god Saturn, after whom the planet was named. The name was introduced into English no later than the tenth century, when the day was referred to as «Sæternes dæge» in an Old English translation of Bede’s Ecclesiastical History of the English People. Prior to that, the old English name was sunnanæfen.
