Ever wonder where the days get their names from? Well, the Crasstalk Investigative team (me) thoroughly researched this subject (spent 2 minutes on Google) and have discovered that Tuesday gets its name from war Gods.
From cybersamurai.net:
– Latin = Dies Martis (“Mars’ Day”, the Romans named this day after Marte, their god of war. Marte = Mars)
– Italien = Martedi (“Mars’ Day”, latin origin)
– French = Mardí (“Mars’ Day”, latin origin)
– Spanish = Martes (“Mars’ Day”, latin origin)
– Greek = Hemera Areos (“Ares’ Day”, Ares was the greek god of war)
– Skandinavian = the skandinavian name got its name from the war-god Tyr.
So, um, have a nice and peaceful Tuesday?
