Word of the week calendar

Use the calculator below to find the day of the week of any date. It also gives out a few facts as well as the calendar of the month.

ISO 8601

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is the regulator of ISO 8601, which is the international standard for covering the exchange of data related to date or time. Though it is used by the majority of the world, particularly developed countries, not all adhere to this standard. The internationally recognized method of conveying the day of the week is governed by ISO 8601, which uses an algorithm for calculating the day of a week in a particular month and year. It is called Zeller’s congruence, which was invented by Christian Zeller.
Monday is the official first day of the week according to ISO 8601.

Gregorian Calendar

The Gregorian Calendar, named after Pope Gregory XIII, is based on the time it takes the moon to make one full revolution around the Earth (roughly one month) and the Sun to make a full revolution around the Earth (roughly one year). Because celestial bodies of such close proximity can be widely encountered, it was common in ancient times to use them to tell time and/or date. This method was further refined into what we now know as the current Gregorian Calendar.

Where do Their Names Come From?

The names of the days of the week are mostly derived from the names of Roman gods (which current names of celestial bodies are also derived from) from the Hellenistic period, which is the period in history between the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC and the rise of the Roman Empire in 31 BC. For instance, in the Roman calendar, Sunday is named after Sol, a Roman Sun god, and Saturday after Saturnus, the Roman god of wealth and liberation, amongst many other things. The others are a bit more obscure; Monday was named after Luna, the divine embodiment of the moon, Tuesday after Mars, Wednesday after Mercurius (Mercury), Thursday after Jove (Jupiter), and Friday after (Venus).
From these origins, Latin names for the days of the week permeated into other cultures and languages such as French and German. It even seeped into cultures all around the world, such as Japanese and Indian culture. For instance, the word Friday in Japanese is formed from the word «kinsei», which means Venus, and «yobi», which means day. The Japanese word for Tuesday, which is «ka youbi», literally translates to «fire day», in relation to Mars. Also, the word for Thursday in most languages spoken in India is «Guruvara», where «guru» is the style of Brhaspati, the guru to the gods and regent of the planet Jupiter.

«Days of the Week» redirects here. For the song by Stone Temple Pilots, see Days of the Week (song).

In many languages, the names given to the seven days of the week are derived from the names of the classical planets in Hellenistic astronomy, which were in turn named after contemporary deities, a system introduced by the Sumerians and later adopted by the Babylonians from whom the Roman Empire adopted the system during Late Antiquity.^[1] In some other languages, the days are named after corresponding deities of the regional culture, beginning either with Sunday or with Monday. The seven-day week was adopted in early Christianity from the Hebrew calendar, who copied it from the Babylonians and gradually replaced the Roman nundinal cycle.^{[citation needed]}
Sunday remained the first day of the week, being considered the day of the sun god Sol Invictus and the Lord’s Day, while the Jewish sabbath remained the seventh.
Emperor Constantine adopted the seven-day week for official use in 321 CE, making the Day of the Sun (dies Solis) a legal holiday.^[2]

In the international standard ISO 8601, Monday is treated as the first day of the week.

Days named after planets[edit]

Greco-Roman tradition[edit]

Between the 1st and 3rd centuries CE, the Roman Empire gradually replaced the eight-day Roman nundinal cycle with the seven-day week.
The earliest evidence for this new system is a Pompeiian graffito referring to 6 February (ante diem viii idus Februarias) of the year 60 CE as dies solis («Sunday»).^[3]
Another early witness is a reference to a lost treatise by Plutarch, written in about CE 100, which addressed the question of: «Why are the days named after the planets reckoned in a different order from the ‘actual’ order?».^[4] (The treatise is lost, but the answer to the question is known; see planetary hours).

The Ptolemaic system of planetary spheres asserts that the order of the heavenly bodies, from the farthest to the closest to the Earth is: Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Sun, Venus, Mercury, Moon, or, objectively, the planets are ordered from slowest to fastest moving as they appear in the night sky.^[5]

The days were named after the planets of Hellenistic astrology, in the order: Sun (Helios), Moon (Selene), Mars (Ares), Mercury (Hermes), Jupiter (Zeus), Venus (Aphrodite) and Saturn (Cronos).^[6]

The seven-day week spread throughout the Roman Empire in Late Antiquity.
By the 4th century, it was in wide use throughout the Empire.^{[citation needed]}

The Greek and Latin names are as follows:

Romance languages[edit]

Except for Modern Portuguese, Galician and Mirandese, the Romance languages preserved the Latin names, except for the names of Sunday, which was replaced by [dies] Dominicus (Dominica), that is, «the Lord’s Day», and of Saturday, which was named for the Sabbath. Mirandese and Modern Portuguese use numbered weekdays (see below), but retain sábado and demingo/domingo for weekends.^[7]

Adoptions from Romance[edit]

Albanian adopted the Latin terms for Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday, adopted translations of the Latin terms for Sunday and Monday, and kept native terms for Thursday and Friday. Other languages adopted the week together with the Latin (Romance) names for the days of the week in the colonial period. Several constructed languages also adopted the Latin terminology.

Germanic tradition[edit]

The Germanic peoples adapted the system introduced by the Romans by substituting the Germanic deities for the Roman ones (with the exception of Saturday) in a process known as interpretatio germanica.
The date of the introduction of this system is not known exactly, but it must have happened later than CE 200 but before the introduction of Christianity during the 6th to 7th centuries, i.e., during the final phase or soon after the collapse of the Western Roman Empire.^[19] This period is later than the Common Germanic stage, but still during the phase of undifferentiated West Germanic. The names of the days of the week in North Germanic languages were not calqued from Latin directly, but taken from the West Germanic names.

• Sunday: Old English Sunnandæg (pronounced [ˈsunnɑndæj]), meaning «sun’s day». This is a translation of the Latin phrase diēs Sōlis. English, like most of the Germanic languages, preserves the day’s association with the sun. Many other European languages, including all of the Romance languages, have changed its name to the equivalent of «the Lord’s day» (based on Ecclesiastical Latin dies Dominica). In both West Germanic and North Germanic mythology, the Sun is personified as Sunna/Sól.
• Monday: Old English Mōnandæg (pronounced [ˈmoːnɑndæj]), meaning «Moon’s day». This is equivalent to the Latin name diēs Lūnae. In North Germanic mythology, the Moon is personified as Máni.
• Tuesday: Old English Tīwesdæg (pronounced [ˈtiːwezdæj]), meaning «Tiw’s day». Tiw (Norse Týr) was a one-handed god associated with single combat and pledges in Norse mythology and also attested prominently in wider Germanic paganism. The name of the day is also related to the Latin name diēs Mārtis, «Day of Mars» (the Roman god of war).
• Wednesday: Old English Wōdnesdæg (pronounced [ˈwoːdnezdæj]) meaning the day of the Germanic god Woden (known as Óðinn among the North Germanic peoples), and a prominent god of the Anglo-Saxons (and other Germanic peoples) in England until about the seventh century. This corresponds to the Latin counterpart diēs Mercuriī, «Day of Mercury», as both are deities of magic and knowledge. The German Mittwoch, the Low German Middeweek, the miðviku- in Icelandic miðvikudagur and the Finnish keskiviikko all mean «mid-week».
• Thursday: Old English Þūnresdæg (pronounced [ˈθuːnrezdæj]), meaning ‘Þunor‘s day’. Þunor means thunder or its personification, the Norse god known in Modern English as Thor. Similarly Dutch donderdag, German Donnerstag (‘thunder’s day’), Finnish torstai, and Scandinavian torsdag (‘Thor’s day’). «Thor’s day» corresponds to Latin diēs Iovis, «day of Jupiter» (the Roman god of thunder).
• Friday: Old English Frīgedæg (pronounced [ˈfriːjedæj]), meaning the day of the Anglo-Saxon goddess Fríge. The Norse name for the planet Venus was Friggjarstjarna, ‘Frigg’s star’.^[20] It is based on the Latin diēs Veneris, «Day of Venus».
• Saturday: named after the Roman god Saturn associated with the Titan Cronus, father of Zeus and many Olympians. Its original Anglo-Saxon rendering was Sæturnesdæg (pronounced [ˈsæturnezdæj]). In Latin, it was diēs Sāturnī, «Day of Saturn». The Nordic laugardagur, leygardagur, laurdag, etc. deviate significantly as they have no reference to either the Norse or the Roman pantheon; they derive from Old Nordic laugardagr, literally «washing-day». The German Sonnabend (mainly used in northern and eastern Germany) and the Low German Sünnavend mean «Sunday Eve»; the German word Samstag derives from the name for Shabbat.

Hindu tradition[edit]

Hindu astrology uses the concept of days under the regency of a planet^{[clarification needed]} under the term vāsara/vāra, the days of the week being called sūrya-/ravi—, chandra-/soma-, maṅgala-, budha-, guru-/bṛhaspati-, śukra-, and śani-vāsara. śukrá is a name of Venus (regarded as a son of Bhṛgu); guru is here a title of Bṛhaspati, and hence of Jupiter; budha «Mercury» is regarded as a son of Soma, that is, the Moon.^[21] Knowledge of Greek astrology existed since about the 2nd century BCE^{[citation needed]}, but references to the vāsara occur somewhat later, during the Gupta period (Yājñavalkya Smṛti, c. 3rd to 5th century CE), that is, at roughly the same period or before the system was introduced in the Roman Empire.^{[citation needed]}

Southeast Asian languages[edit]

The Southeast Asian tradition also uses the Hindu names of the days of the week. Hindu astrology adopted the concept of days under the regency of a planet under the term vāra, the days of the week being called āditya-, soma-, maṅgala-, budha-, guru-, śukra-, and śani-vāra. śukrá is a name of Venus (regarded as a son of Bhṛgu); guru is here a title of Bṛhaspati, and hence of Jupiter; budha «Mercury» is regarded as a son of Soma, that is, the Moon.^[22]

East Asian tradition[edit]

The East Asian naming system for the days of the week closely parallels that of the Latin system and is ordered after the «Seven Luminaries» (七曜 qī yào), which consists of the Sun, Moon and the five planets visible to the naked eye.

The Chinese had apparently adopted the seven-day week from the Hellenistic system by the 4th century CE, although by which route is not entirely clear. It was again transmitted to China in the 8th century CE by Manichaeans, via the country of Kang (a Central Asian polity near Samarkand).^[23]
The 4th-century CE date, according to the Cihai encyclopedia,^{[year needed]} is due to a reference to Fan Ning (范寧), an astrologer of the Jin Dynasty. The renewed adoption from Manichaeans in the 8th century CE (Tang Dynasty) is documented with the writings of the Chinese Buddhist monk Yijing and the Ceylonese Buddhist monk Bu Kong.

The Chinese transliteration of the planetary system was soon brought to Japan by the Japanese monk Kobo Daishi; surviving diaries of the Japanese statesman Fujiwara no Michinaga show the seven-day system in use in Heian Period Japan as early as 1007. In Japan, the seven-day system was kept in use (for astrological purposes) until its promotion to a full-fledged (Western-style) calendrical basis during the Meiji era. In China, with the founding of the Republic of China in 1911, Monday through Saturday in China are now named after the luminaries implicitly with the numbers.

For Standard Chinese nomenclature of the days of the week, see Names of the days of the week § Days numbered from Monday.

For more information on the Chinese ten-day week, see Chinese calendar.

Pronunciations for Classical Chinese names are given in Standard Chinese.

Numbered days of the week[edit]

Days numbered from Monday[edit]

The ISO prescribes Monday as the first day of the week with ISO-8601 for software date formats.

The Slavic, Baltic and Uralic languages (except Finnish and partially Estonian and Võro) adopted numbering but took Monday rather than Sunday as the «first day».^[24] This convention is also found in some Austronesian languages whose speakers were converted to Christianity by European missionaries.^[25]

In Slavic languages, some of the names correspond to numerals after Sunday: compare Russian vtornik (вторник) «Tuesday» and vtoroj (второй) «the second», chetverg (четверг) «Thursday» and chetvjortyj (четвёртый) «the fourth», pyatnitsa (пятница) «Friday» and pyatyj (пятый) «the fifth»; see also the Notes.

In Standard Chinese, the week is referred to as the «Stellar Period» (Chinese: 星期; pinyin: Xīngqī) or «Cycle» (simplified Chinese: 周; traditional Chinese: 週; pinyin: Zhōu).

The modern Chinese names for the days of the week are based on a simple numerical sequence. The word for «week» is followed by a number indicating the day: «Monday» is literally the «Stellar Period One»/»Cycle One», that is, the «First day of the Stellar Period/Cycle», etc. The exception is Sunday, where 日 (rì), «day» or «Sun», is used instead of a number.^[27] A slightly informal and colloquial variant to 日 is 天 (tiān) «day», «sky» or «heaven».

Accordingly, the notational abbreviation of the days of the week uses the numbers, for example, 一 for «M» or «Mon(.)», «Monday». Note that the abbreviation of Sunday uses exclusively 日 and not 天. Attempted usage of 天 as such will not be understood.

Colloquially, the week is also known as the «Prayer» (simplified Chinese: 礼拜; traditional Chinese: 禮拜; pinyin: Lǐbài), with the names of the days of the week formed accordingly.

The following is a table of the Mandarin names of the days of the weeks. Note that standard Taiwan Mandarin pronounces 期 as qí, so 星期 is instead xīngqí. While all varieties of Mandarin may pronounce 星期 as xīngqi and 禮拜/礼拜 as lǐbai, the second syllable with the neutral tone, this is not reflected in the table either for legibility.

Several Sinitic languages refer to Saturday as 週末 «end of the week» and Sunday as 禮拜. Examples include Shenyang Mandarin, Hanyuan Sichuanese Mandarin, Taishanese, Yudu Hakka, Teochew, Ningbonese, and Loudi Old Xiang. Some Hakka varieties in Taiwan still use the traditional Luminaries.

Days numbered from Sunday[edit]

Sunday comes first in order in calendars shown in the table below. In the Abrahamic tradition, the first day of the week is Sunday. Biblical Sabbath (corresponding to Saturday) is when God rested from six-day Creation, making the day following the Sabbath the first day of the week (corresponding to Sunday). Seventh-day Sabbaths were sanctified for celebration and rest. After the week was adopted in early Christianity, Sunday remained the first day of the week, but also gradually displaced Saturday as the day of celebration and rest, being considered the Lord’s Day.

Saint Martin of Dumio (c. 520–580), archbishop of Braga, decided not to call days by pagan gods and to use ecclesiastic terminology to designate them. While the custom of numbering the days of the week was mostly prevalent in the Eastern Church, Portuguese, Mirandese and Galician, due to Martin’s influence, are the only Romance languages in which the names of the days come from numbers rather than planetary names.

Members of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) historically objected to the pagan etymologies of days and months and substituted numbering, beginning with First Day for Sunday.

Icelandic is a special case within the Germanic languages, maintaining only the Sun and Moon (sunnudagur and mánudagur respectively), while dispensing with the names of the explicitly heathen gods in favour of a combination of numbered days and days whose names are linked to pious or domestic routine (föstudagur, «Fasting Day» and laugardagur, «Washing Day»). The «washing day» is also used in other North Germanic languages, but otherwise the names correspond to those of English.

Days numbered from Saturday[edit]

In Swahili, the day begins at sunrise, unlike in the Arabic and Hebrew calendars where the day starts at sunset (therefore an offset of twelve hours on average), and unlike in the Western world where the day starts at midnight (therefore an offset of six hours on average). Saturday is therefore the first day of the week, as it is the day that includes the first night of the week in Arabic.

Etymologically speaking, Swahili has two «fifth» days. The words for Saturday through Wednesday contain the Bantu-derived Swahili words for «one» through «five». The word for Thursday, Alhamisi, is of Arabic origin and means «the fifth» (day). The word for Friday, Ijumaa, is also Arabic and means (day of) «gathering» for the Friday noon prayers in Islam.

Day Number from One	Saturday Day One	Sunday Day Two	Monday Day Three	Tuesday Day Four	Wednesday Day Five	Thursday Day Six	Friday Day Seven
Swahili[28]	jumamosi	jumapili	jumatatu	jumanne	jumatano	alhamisi [♃2]	ijumaa [♀4]

Mixing of numbering and astronomy[edit]

In the Žejane dialect of Istro-Romanian, lur (Monday) and virer (Friday) follow the Latin convention, while utorek (Tuesday), sredu (Wednesday), and četrtok (Thursday) follow the Slavic convention.^[29]

Day	Monday	Tuesday	Wednesday	Thursday	Friday	Saturday	Sunday
Istro-Romanian, Žejane dialect	lur	utorek	sredu	četrtok	virer	simbota [♄1]	dumireca [☉1]

There are several systems in the different Basque dialects.^[30]

Day	Monday	Tuesday	Wednesday	Thursday	Friday	Saturday	Sunday
Standard Basque, Guipuscoan Basque	astelehena («week-first»)	asteartea («week-between»)	asteazkena («week-last»)	osteguna («Ortzi/Sky day»)	ostirala (see Ortzi)	larunbata («fourth», «meeting of friends»), neskenegun («girls’ day»)	igandea
Biscayne Basque	astelena («week-first»), ilen («Moon day»)	martitzena («Mars day»)	eguaztena («day last»)	eguena («day of days», «day of light»)	barikua («day without supper»), egubakotx	zapatua (compare with Spanish sábado from Sabbath)	domeka (from Latin Dominica [dies])

In Judaeo-Spanish (Ladino), which is mainly based on a medieval version of Spanish, the five days of Monday–Friday closely follow the Spanish names. For Sunday is used the Arabic name, which is based on numbering (meaning «Day one» or «First day»), because a Jewish language was not likely to adapt a name based on «Lord’s Day» for Sunday. As in Spanish, the Ladino name for Saturday is based on Sabbath. However, as a Jewish language—and with Saturday being the actual day of rest in the Jewish community—Ladino directly adapted the Hebrew name, Shabbat.^[31]

Day	Sunday	Monday	Tuesday	Wednesday	Thursday	Friday	Saturday
Judaeo-Spanish (Ladino)	aljhad or alhadh	lunes	martes	miércoles or mierkoles	juğeves or djueves	viernes	shabat[♄1]

The days of the week in Meitei language (officially known as Manipuri language) originated from the Sanamahi creation myth of Meitei mythology.^{[32]

Description

This printable 3-week calendar allows you to fit more into your day than a typical monthly calendar does. If you print the entire worksheet, it will print 3 weeks per page for an entire year. It includes some common holidays and events. If you want to edit the spreadsheet instead of filling in the calendar by hand, you can use the color coding to highlight specific types of events or to highlight appointments for different members of the family.

There are no automated ways of adding recurring events, so if you want that type of feature for a weekly calendar, then I’d recommend using Outlook or Google Calendar.

Description

Vertex42’s weekly calendar is great for creating custom weekly schedules for home, school, and the office. To plan many weeks ahead, you can simply duplicate the worksheet and then rename the tabs and change the date listed at the top of each week.

This new weekly calendar template is much easier to use and customize than the original. If you would like an even simpler format, you can try our weekly schedule template.

You may also download the older version of the weekly calendar template for Excel 2003. It is great for printing blank weekly calendars, but does not work in Excel Online or Excel for iPad/iPhone.
