Biography
Wednesday is the day of the week in between Tuesday and Thursday. According to international standard ISO 8601, it is the third day of the week. However, in countries that adopt the traditional "Sunday first" convention, where Sunday is the first day of the week, it is the fourth day of the week. The name is derived from Old English Wōdnesdæg, meaning 'day of Woden', reflecting the Anglo-Saxon religion. In many Romance languages, such as French, Spanish, or Italian, the day's name is a calque of Latin dies Mercurii, 'day of Mercury'.
