HOW DO YOU SPELL WEDNESDAY

Brief History of Wednesday

The spelling of Wdnesdag altered as it went from Old English to Middle English. There was no change in the word’s pronunciation, and the “d” persisted even when “Wednesdei” was shortened to “Wednesday.”

Like February and Ptarmigan, terms like Wednesday have letters that occur in the word’s spelling but not in the pronunciation. Many individuals pronounce the letter “d” in portions of England, Scotland, and India, even though the letter is silent in the United States. 

W – E – D – N – E – S – D – A – Y

Each letter plays a crucial role in forming the correct spelling, so let’s examine them:

• W: This letter, pronounced as “double-u,” is the first letter of “Wednesday.”
• E: The first vowel in the word, it’s pronounced as “ee.”
• D: This letter is pronounced as “dee” and is the second consonant in the word.
• N: The fourth letter, pronounced as “en.”
• E: Here’s another “ee” sound, the fifth letter in the word.
• S: The letter “ess,” pronounced as “es,” is the sixth letter.
• D: The seventh letter, pronounced as “dee.”
• A: Pronounced as “ay,” it’s the penultimate letter in “Wednesday.”
• Y: Finally, we have “y,” pronounced as “wai.”

To make it easier, you can break it into two parts: “Wednesday” and “Days.” The word originates from Old English and refers to the Norse god Odin, making it a bit unusual in terms of its spelling.

With practice, you’ll be able to spell “Wednesday” correctly without any hesitation. So, keep practicing, and you’ll have it down.
