The plural form of Saturday, referring to multiple seventh days of the week that come after Friday.
From Old English 'Sæturnesdæg,' literally 'Saturn's day,' named after the Roman god of wealth and agriculture. The Romans dedicated each day of the week to different planets and gods, and this naming convention spread throughout Germanic languages and eventually English.
Saturday is named after Saturn, a god so important to the Romans that they celebrated Saturnalia—a wild winter festival where social rules were flipped upside down and even slaves got to be in charge for a day. That's why weekends feel like a different world!
