DAYS OF THE WEEK
Los nombres de los días de la semana en inglés dan fe de las raíces germánicas del idioma, ya que todos salvo Saturday proceden del panteón de los dioses nórdicos.
Monday (monandaeg) rinde culto a la diosa Mona (Luna).
Tuesday (tiwesdaeg) alude a Tiw, dios de la guerra (Marte)
Wednesday (wodnesdaeg) es el día de Woden, que corresponde a Mercurio
Thursday (thurnresdaeg) es el de Tor (Júpiter), dios del rayo y el trueno
Friday (frigedaeg) es de Frige, diosa de la belleza (Venus)
Saturday lleva el nombre del dios romano Saturno
Sunday (sunnandaeg), como para los romanos (dies solis), es el día del sol.
Sólo hay un problema: muchos españoles confunden Tuesday (pronúnciese tiúsde) con Thursday. Para evitarlo, acordaros de que ese tiú suena a two (dos), del segundo día de la semana.

Rudolph, The red-nosed reindeer
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows
All of the other reindeer
They used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games
Then one foggy Christmas eve
Santa came to say:
"Rudolph with your nose so bright
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"
Then all the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
You'll go down in history
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows
All of the other reindeer
They used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Join in any reindeer games
Then one foggy Christmas eve
Santa came to say:
"Rudolph with your nose so bright
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"
Then all the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
You'll go down in history
