What gets me about the months of the year is they made perfect sense: OCTober (eight) SEPTember (seventh) NOVember (ninth) and DECember (tenth) until some idiot added July (Julius Caeser) and August (Augustus Caeser) IN THE MIDDLE OF THE YEAR!!!!

Hello!


Yep.
We have similiar once..

Måndag
Tisdag
onsdag (odens dag)
Torsdag (Tors dag, the thundergod and killer of the Fenris wolf)
Fredag (could also be Freys dag, good of harvest and something like that..)
Lördag (saturday ((don´t know the meaning)
Söndag..

The Months are from greek/roman gods.

We have more like stol, ship/skepp and so on. Might get your mind rumbling about the tower of babylon eh? hehehe...
