n. the third day of the week, following Monday
The word "Tuesday" originates from Old English Tīwesdæg, meaning "Tiw's day." Tiw (or Tyr in Norse mythology) was the Germanic god of war and justice. The name reflects the ancient practice of naming days after celestial bodies and associated deities. In Latin, the day was dies Martis (day of Mars, the Roman war god), which influenced the naming in Romance languages (e.g., French mardi). The English form preserves the Germanic tradition, linking the day to Tiw.
