      Asking the real questions

      Both google translate and deepl.com translate both the English “soup of the day”, the French “soup du jour” and German “Tagessuppe” as “dagens soppa” which is the “not night” day. So it still implies a nattens soppa.

        I would argue that in French “soup du jour” is the correct meaning, as in “today’s soup”. And it would otherwise be “soup de jour” as in “day soup”, which doesn’t exist.
