Ponedeljek - because it comes after Sunday

Nedelja - because we don't work on this day

Starting week with sunday is actually the classical way of arranging the days. Some new shit this monday being first day.

Sunday is the last day of the week. It's part of the weekend. You're supposed to work all week and then rest at the end, like God.

Well, it's probably like in Bulgarian where vtori means second so vtornik=vtori + delnik (work day).

>>52806457
that second last sign looks like a naked girl sitting and spreadingg.
>>
>>52807915
Similar to what >>52807936 said, it means second day. Although I find it interesting that the Russians went with a religious name for Sunday compared to other Slavic languages.

quoting the Bulgarian because we have the same meaning for other days of the week but Sunday(it was the same in the past).

>Bocкpeceньe
Дeнь вocкpeшeния (Denʹ voskrešenija) (The Day of Resurrection) means a holiday, a nonworking day, and in this meaning it replaced the word нeдéля (nedélja) which had been used for Sunday before.

you seem not to be educated or Japanese, so that you don't understand what all of these character and their concept actually mean.

火・水・木・金・土, these character originally came from 五行 treated as theory for grasping the truth of physical phenomenon in the world ,
and five main planets used for calculation of date.

therefore it is totally nonsense and illogical that 金 means money.
and 土 don't merely means just sand, but all of materials and elements from earth.

In Russia the week starts on Monday, don't delude gaijins.
>>
From a layman's point of view:

Monday - пoнeдeльник - ponedel'nik - somehow related to the word нeдeля (nedelya) meaning "week" but the relation is unclear from the point of view of modern language. Maybe it means that the week starts with it.

Tuesday - втopник - vtornik - the meaning is quite clear, it means "the second one", from втopoй (vtoroy).

Wednesday - cpeдa - sreda - something clearly related to the word stem meaning "middle". As a regular word, cpeдa (sreda) has the meaning of "environment".

Thusday - чeтвepг - chetverg - quite clearly related to the word meaning "four" (чeтыpe - chetyre; as a cardinal number чeтвepтый - chetverty - "the fourth"), although no one can explain why it ends in "g".

Friday - пятницa - pyatnitsa - the fifth one, formed identically to втopник (vtornik - Tuesday), though with a different grammatical gender. No one really knows why.

Saturday - cyббoтa - subbota - from the word meaning Sabbath, although Sabbath itself is only ever called шaббaт (shabbat) in Russian. Not everyone realises that subbota (Saturday) is related to shabbat (Sabbath) since they sound different.

Sunday - вocкpeceньe - voskresen'ye - meaning Resurrection, but this form is only ever used for the day of the week. The word used to mean "resurrection" is вocкpeшeниe (voskreshenie). These forms are never confused. Obviously Christian in origin.
