Did you we know where the days of the week derive their names from?

The days of the week were one of the first things we learned at elementary school and since we have been using them without ever digging into where they actually originate from. The fun fact is that they correspond to the moon, the sun and a planet in our solar system. The names might not mean much in English but if you look at the spelllings and pronunciations in Latin, French, Spanish and Italian, you can see what I mean.
So let's start with Sunday. The name says it all. In Latin the sun is Dies Solis, meaning day of the Sun God. French - Dimanche Spanish - Domingo & Italian - Domenica

Monday in Latin - Dies Lunae, meaning day of the Moon Goddess. French - Lundi, Spanish - Lunes & Italian - Lunedi
