Martes (día de la semana)

"Martes" is the Spanish word for Tuesday, the second day of the week according to many calendars. It derives from the Latin "Martis dies," meaning "day of Mars," the Roman god of war. In many cultures, Tuesday is associated with the planet Mars and often considered an active, energetic day. It follows Monday and precedes Wednesday, fitting into the workweek structure. Understanding "Martes" helps with scheduling, cultural references, and language learning, especially in Spanish-speaking countries where the days are named after celestial bodies and mythological figures.
