Hello Hugarian learners 😀


Here is how write the Days of the Week in Hugarian:

Days of the Week in Hungarian (writing & origin)

English Hungarian Origin
Monday Hétfő begining of the week. 'Hét' - means week (and also it means the number 7), 'fő' - means (here) head.
Tuesday Kedd derived from the word second: 'Kettedik' (a bit archaic)
Wednesday Szerda Slavic influence.
Thrusday Csütörtök Slavic influence (4th day)
Friday Péntek its origin is debated, maybe Slavic or Greek influence
Saturday Szombat refers to the Jewish 'shabbat'
Sunday Vasárnap derived from 'vásár' and 'nap', meaning market-day.
