curses: attrai = anru , anraiya = of that day
It also means 'daily'. thingal = moon, month
attrai thingal = moon of that day

never knew in my life that Monday has something to do with moon or Thingal with 'nila'!! no wonder, spanish its lunes and french its lundi - variation of lune(moon).

It is amazing how this is true even in the case of languages as disparate as thamizh and samskritham (Monday is soamavaasarah; soamah = the moon.) I won't be surprised if there is some conection in German too, given that the two words share the first three letters.

Prabhu et al: It is Montag in German! I am sure
you know it is Gnayiru (=Sun) for Sunday! Sonntag in German.
