"Jueves"

"Jueves" is the Spanish word for "Thursday," the fourth day of the week in many calendars. The name originates from the Latin "Jovius," linked to Jupiter, the Roman king of gods. Like in English, where Thursday is named after Thor, the Norse god of thunder, "Jueves" reflects historical naming conventions tied to planetary and mythological associations. It serves as a reference point in time for scheduling and structuring the weekly rhythm across various cultures that use the Spanish language.
