Just like in English, there are only seven days of the week in German.<\/span><\/p>\n

So how can there be a whole article written about this?<\/span><\/p>\n

You just have to look deeper.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you memorize the days as just words, you\u2019re missing out on background and additional information that all native speakers have.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why do the days have their names? Are there special words or phrases that are related to days of the week?<\/span><\/p>\n

What about grammar<\/a> \u2013 does it work just like English, or are the days treated differently? (Hint: Yes.)<\/span><\/p>\n

It may be a simple topic, but that\u2019s exactly why you need to know it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s get started!<\/span><\/p>\n

Ground Rules<\/b><\/p>\n

A couple of things that apply to all German days of the week: they\u2019re all grammatically masculine, they\u2019re all capitalized, and you always use <\/span>am<\/span><\/i> to say <\/span>on<\/span><\/i> (On Monday, on Tuesday, etc\u2026)<\/span><\/p>\n

When you\u2019re talking about doing things regularly (On Fridays I skip class) you use the genitive. Fortunately, the end result is exactly the same as in English \u2013 you just add an \u2018s\u2019 – and so you could be forgiven for thinking that you\u2019re actually using the plural. When you do this, don\u2019t capitalize the word.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ich gehe sonntags wandern.<\/span><\/em>
\nI go hiking on Sundays.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

When you\u2019re talking about a stretch of time, use <\/span>von…bis<\/span><\/i> to say <\/span>from X to Y.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Der Bank ist von Montag bis Mittwoch verschlossen.<\/span><\/em>
\nThe bank is closed from Monday through Wednesday.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Days of the Week in German<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Montag<\/b>
\n(Mo for short, plural Montage)<\/span><\/p>\n

Literally means \u201cday of the moon\u201d as it does in many other languages around the world. Monday is the beginning of the week in German-speaking countries, just like the rest of Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n

The most important Monday in Germany has got to be <\/span>Rosenmontag<\/span><\/i>, which is on the Monday before Ash Wednesday. It\u2019s the high point of the <\/span>Karneval<\/span><\/i> celebrations, with most schools and offices closed all day for the parades and festivities.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Dienstag<\/b>
\n(Di for short, plural Dienstage)<\/b><\/p>\n

Although you can see the word <\/span>Dienst<\/span><\/i> (service) in this word, it actually refers to a Norse god named <\/span>Tiw<\/span><\/i>, meaning Tiw\u2019s Day. Not far from the English equivalent! <\/span><\/p>\n

To say \u201cday of service\u201d you\u2019ll want to add an extra \u2018t\u2019 and be very careful with your pronunciation of <\/span>Diensttag<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Learn<\/a><\/p>\n

Mittwoch<\/b>
\n(Mi for short, plural Mittwoche)<\/b><\/p>\n

Just like the word <\/span>Mitternacht <\/span><\/i>(midnight), this word means \u201cmiddle of the week.\u201d It\u2019s an adaptation of the Latin phrase <\/span>media hebdomas<\/span><\/i>, meaning the same thing. That Latin influence started around the 4th or 5th century AD and kept on coming – you\u2019ll see it again later on in the week.<\/span><\/p>\n

In English, we continue the theme of referring to Norse gods with our word Wednesday (Woden\u2019s Day). There is in fact a Wodenstag, but it\u2019s not commonly used or spoken at all \u2013 only in some dialects or older literature.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Donnerstag<\/b>
\n(Do for short, plural Donnerstage)<\/b><\/p>\n

Donner<\/span><\/i> means \u201cthunder\u201d nowadays, but in ancient times it was spelled <\/span>Donar<\/span><\/i> and synonymous with the name of the god Thor. <\/span><\/p>\n

In Bavaria and Austria, Thursday is sometimes called <\/span>Pfinztag<\/span><\/i>. This word is just as ancient as <\/span>Donnerstag<\/span><\/i>. It comes from Greek roots meaning \u201cfifth day\u201d – that is, counting from Sunday. <\/span>Pfinztag<\/span><\/i> was used by Goths and other early Christians who didn\u2019t want to make reference to the Norse gods in their everyday speech. By now, the other alternate day names have long fallen out of use.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Freitag<\/b>
\n(Fr for short, plural Freitage)<\/b><\/p>\n

Again we see a sort of false root here. <\/span>Frei<\/span><\/i> doesn\u2019t mean free here, instead it comes from another god\u2019s name, Frigga.<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s a relatively common expression in German, <\/span>schwarzer Freitag<\/span><\/i>. <\/span>Black Friday<\/span><\/i> in English is associated with shopping sprees, but in Germany it\u2019s a reminder of a nineteenth-century economic crisis. The expression can be translated something like \u201ca dark day (for somebody)\u201d in an economic context.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ein schwarzer Freitag f\u00fcr Kleinanleger.<\/span>
\nA dark day for small investors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Samstag<\/b>
\n(Sa for short, plural Samstage)<\/b><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a change of pace. This word is actually cognate with English <\/span>sabbath \u2013 <\/span><\/i>if we go back to Old High German <\/span>sambaztag<\/span><\/i> you can see the connection a little clearer.<\/span><\/p>\n

All German speakers will also understand the older word <\/span>Sonnabend, <\/span><\/i>which was actually the official form in the German Democratic Republic. Older speakers in North and East Germany today might even prefer <\/span>Sonnabend<\/span><\/i> in natural speech. According to ancient German tradition, the day actually began in the evening!<\/span>
\n\"A
\nSonntag<\/b>
\n(So for short, plural Sonntage)<\/b><\/p>\n

No tricks here. This looks like and means \u201cday of the sun.\u201d For a long time, Sunday was seen as the first day of the week in Germany, though it\u2019s now shifted to Monday.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Europe, Sunday is literally codified as a day of rest. Large supermarkets and malls are required by law to close on Sunday – so don\u2019t expect to get much shopping done <\/span>am Sonntag!<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Although I\u2019ve just given you a list of the days of the week in German, it\u2019s actually not a good idea to try to memorize them in order.<\/span><\/p>\n

When we try to learn lists of related words in foreign languages, our brains rely on that list structure for recall. The pattern of the recitation becomes more powerful than the memory of the word.<\/span><\/p>\n

Think of how many people have trouble with \u201cleft\u201d and \u201cright\u201d in any language. That\u2019s because they try to memorize them together \u2013 every time! And that causes the wires to keep on crossing because the brain doesn\u2019t ever learn to properly separate them.<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s why learning German from context \u2013 from authentic, interesting native content \u2013 is the best way to go. It\u2019s not as boring as vocabulary lists, and you\u2019ll get the repetition you need naturally over time. For example, interviews are great for casual conversation and sometimes listening to songs will help you learn some German slang vocabulary<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Learn<\/a><\/p>\n

You can take some steps right now to start acquiring this contextual knowledge. Changing your phone or your computer\u2019s calendar to German is an easy start. Even seeing the abbreviated forms of the days – Mo, Di, Mi, that sort of thing – will start to trigger your memory for the full words. <\/span><\/p>\n
