Sunday is the day of the week that comes after Saturday and before Monday, often treated as a rest or worship day in many cultures.
From Old English 'Sunnandæg' meaning 'day of the sun', translated from Latin 'dies solis' with the same meaning. It reflects ancient traditions of naming days after celestial bodies and gods.
Sunday literally means 'sun’s day', a leftover from when people tied each day to a planet or god. Even in our busy modern schedules, that ancient habit survives quietly in the calendar.
