Been too long since I've been to Germany, forgot Samstag. Sonnabend worked, though, so no complains.

I'm not a Germanic linguist, but I can point to times I used or heard it in Hanover, Bielefeld, and Freiburg.

I wonder why all the Spanish days are so low?

Good question. I think French is highest because we have a decent amount of traffic from French-speaking countries.

Cool. I could only get the Spanish answers, maybe that's why those days are actually higher than they should be!

Well, me, for example. Being from Belgium, I know the days in French and German, but not in Spanish.

French is also much more popular than Spanish as a foreign language in most European countries. In Greece, for example, we have to choose between French and German as a second foreign language at school. So about half of the younger population speaks some French, while almost nobody speaks Spanish.

Was kinda surprised by that, given there are more Spanish speakers than French and German combined by a fair margin and Spanish is the second most common language in the US where - I assume - most of this site's users come from.

Came back 11 months later and got the French ones. I'm not planning on learning German, however!

@Findlay the reason being is that most of the traffic on this site comes from North America and Eurasia. South America is where most of the Spanish population lies.

@ClutchNferno Mexico, Spain and the USA are the countries with the highest amount of Spanish speakers and they are in North America and Europe.

We get two years (or was it one? Been too long) mandatory french and german in the netherlands.

When I was younger and I saw in tvseries that (like 13/14 year old) kids got spanish in school I was very surprised. But later I thought it made sense, being close to mexico.

Spanish isnt even a subject you can choose here in school. Maybe after high school when you are 18 there are spanish studies you can choose? Not even sure about that. You can ofcourse probably do an internet course. Or an (adult) evening course, like you can do a cooking course etc.

Bearing in mind that I am in my fifties now, as a schoolkid in England, after primary school - so from age eleven plus - I did five (subject-) years of French (three of them compulsory), five of Latin (three compulsory), two of Spanish (both compulsory). The first foreign language I actually needed was Dutch, go figure. But all British schoolkids should have been subjected to a bit of French.

Had all the german. Missed jeudi (apparently not the only one, it is the lowest french one. I allways forget it. (Friday to, but it eventually comes to me. It goes lundi mardi mercredi (tried a long to spell it right, knew how it sounded) samedi dimanche, in my head. Then I have to think hard for the others.

I am surprised mittwoch isnt lower. Since it deviates.

Had none of the spanish. Eventually remebered day being dias/dies. So tried some french with that ending. Seeing the answer I do recongnize some of the spanish (well you can recognize all the french in them but that is not what I meant) mainly sabado and domingo.

Funnily there too thursday scores the lowest. What is it with that day. Maybe donnerstag has stolen their thunder (hahah I thought of this phrase unaware of the double relevance)

Yes, especially considering that the big majority of users on this site are Americans, and in the USA Spanish is much more important than French.

Don't know the German ones. Assuming "Mittwoch" translates as "mid-week"?

Yes. And Donnerstag is Thunder's Day, which corresponds to the English "Thor's Day". And Thor is the nordic equivalent of Jupiter, who gave the name to Jeudi and Jueves.
