WeDnesday, do we really need the "D"?
It would be easier to spell and it would sound the same.

We're not supposed to pronounce the "D?" Great! I suppose somebody's gonna tell me that we're NOT supposed to pronounce the "k" in KNEE either!
I think the English language should get rid of ALL silent letters. Is it a SORD, or a SWORD? When kids are taught spelling in early elementary school, teachers tell the kids to sound out the word. Um, and people wonder why so many kids turn out crazy, like me!

yes, but there are at least a hundred other words you could say that about. Like cough would be easier to spell as coff.

bu the root of teh name "Wednesday" is Weden's day, and Weden was teh Anglo Saxon version of the Norse god Odin
Tuesday, Thursday and Friday were also named for the Anglo Saxon version of other Norse deities
Monday to worship the moon
Sunday to Worship the sun
and saturday for the Roma God Saturn

I don't now I guess its just a silent letter but really to me it seems pointless cause Wednesday should be written how it is pronounced Wenesday

I thought your question said something else, I was getting worried.. But nope I'd say we don't need the D in Wednesday but it's just like we don't really need the P in psychic really..

Well, 'beatle fanatic', would we then drop the A and the final E in beatle since we don't actually pronounce them? I pronounce the D in Wednesday just to annoy people.

Do you say 'shehdule' or pronounce it 'skedoolie'?
