**Tuesday** is the **third day of the week**. Its name has an interesting origin: 1. **Etymology**: - The English name “Tuesday“ is derived from Middle English **Tewesday**, which comes from Old English **Tiwesdæg**. This Old English term means “**Tīw’s Day**,“ referring to the day of **Tiw** or **Týr**. - In Norse mythology, **Tiw** (or **Týr**) was the god of single combat, law, and justice. He was equated with the Roman god **Mars**. - The Latin name for Tuesday is **dies Martis**, which translates to “day of Mars.“ - Other languages also associate Tuesday with Mars. For example: - German: **Dienstag** - Dutch: **dinsdag** - Japanese: **火曜日** (kayōbi), from the planet **火星** (kasei) (Mars) - Korean: **화요일** (hwa yo il), meaning “fire day“ - Indo-Aryan languages (Pali and Sanskrit): Derived from **Angaraka**, a style for the god of war and for Mars - Nahuatl: **Huītzilōpōchtōnal**, meaning “day of Huitzilopochtli“ (a deity) - Arabic: **الثلاثاء** (al-Thulatha’) - Hebrew: **יום שלישי** (Yom Shlishi), meaning “the third day“ 2. **Religious Observances**: - In the Eastern Orthodox Church, Tuesdays are dedicated to **Saint John the Baptist**². So, next time you say “Tuesday,“ remember its connection to ancient gods and celestial bodies! 🌟 Source: Conversation with Bing, 4/22/2024 (1) Tuesday - Wikipedia.
