Etymology [edit]
From Middle English, from Old English þursdæġ, þurresdæġ (“Thursday”), possibly from a contraction of Old English þunresdæġ (“Thursday”, literally “Thor's day”), but more likely of North Germanic origin, from Old Norse þōrsdagr or Old Danish þūrsdag (“Thursday”); all from Proto-Germanic *Þunras dagaz (“Thor's day”). Compare West Frisian tongersdei, Dutch donderdag, German Donnerstag, Danish torsdag. More at thunder, day.
A calque of Latin dies Iovis (dies Jovis), via an association of the god Thor with the Roman god of thunder Jove (Jupiter).
Pronunciation [edit]
-
Thursday (plural Thursdays)
- The fifth day of the week in many religious traditions, and the fourth day of the week in systems using the ISO 8601 norm; it follows Wednesday and precedes Friday.
