THE SPANISH WORD FOR SATURDAY

Do you know what the Spanish word for Saturday is?

It is Sabado. Listen to this word and you hear the root word Sabbath behind it, the Biblical day of rest.

The root word for Saturday is Saturn, the Roman god, which is associated with agriculture and wealth. Nothing wrong with agriculture and wealth.

I kind of like the association with the word Sabado as compared with the word Saturday.

How about you?
