The word Seventh Day originates from the Old English word seofonþa dæg, which is a fusion of the words seofon (meaning seven) and þa dæg (meaning day). The Old English term was derived from the Germanic language family, specifically the West Germanic branch. The West Germanic root for seven is sebun or seofon, closely related to the Old High German word sibun and the Gothic word sibun. Over time, the term seofonþa dæg evolved into the modern English word Seventh Day.
