Thursday is end day in weekend. Today you are so tired, will think about how your week was, and how will go on Thursday. With everything that has happened to you, you can either feel sorry for yourself, or treat what has happened as a gift.

I am chronically unable sometimes to not just not know what day it is but the date, the month or even the year.

The English word Thursday is named after the Norse god of thunder, Thor. Thursday means Thor’s day in Old English. Thor is represented riding a chariot drawn by goats and wielding his hammer. You may find English speakers using both these meanings, often depending on regional uses. So which is more correct, and how should you commonly understand these expressions? Actually the second sentence is more common, and for many English speakers more logical – because the coming Friday is usually referred to as this Friday. In Roman mythology, Thor is called Jupiter. Yes, this God not only has a day of the week named after him, but also a planet. It seems like Jupiter has all the fun, doesn’t he? We often think about personality in relation to our Zodiac sign, but there are astrological elements based on the day we are born. People born on Thursday are ruled by the God Jupiter and are said to be good advisors and teachers. They are also known to have a straight-forward attitude. 19. Da Vinci was a Thursday’s Child

The apostrophe is the main cause of confusion between the two words. Usually, the presence of an apostrophe indicates possession, such as: Kyle’s car broke down last week. But English does not use apostrophes when denoting possession in personal pronouns like our, her, his, their, and its.Weeks are ambiguous, though. Personally, I feel that a calendar week runs from Monday to Sunday. At least in American culture, we all refer to the 2 day weekEND. I think our traditional calendar here shows Sunday as the first day of the week because of a biblical reference. But even if we all agree that the next week starts after a weekend, there’s still the problem of calendar week vs. current 7 day period beginning with today. When one says next week, they could either be referring to this coming Monday through Sunday period, because they would refer to the current Monday through Sunday period as this week. Or, they could be referring to 7-13 days from now. It all depends on what a person is currently meaning by the word week. Week can’t be standardized, but should be understood by context. By the time Thursday rolls around, you stay in, and you work, and you don’t go out because it’s horrible.” – El-P In the Eastern Orthodox Church, Thursdays are dedicated to the Apostles and Saint Nicholas. The Octoechos contains hymns on these themes, arranged in an eight-week cycle, that are chanted on Thursdays throughout the year. At the end of Divine Services on Thursday, the dismissal begins with the words: "May Christ our True God, through the intercessions of his most-pure Mother, of the holy, glorious and all-laudable Apostles, of our Father among the saints Nicholas, Archbishop of Myra in Lycia, the Wonder-worker…" In the United States, Thanksgiving Day is an annual festival celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November. To some, Thursday feels like a reminder that the week has been going on for far too long, but a more optimistic way of looking at is seeing it as the “beginning of the end” of the work week.

In India, Thursday is known as Guruvara or the Day of the Guru. It is represented by Brhaspati, guru to the gods and represented by the planet Jupiter (sound familiar?). James Barnhard said “It’s Saturday night and I say to you, “This Monday, I would like to go shopping with you.” By your rules, you should tell me that will be impossible because this Monday has already passed. Is that your contention? ”We wonder what David Bowie would have to say about this. He released a song called Thursday’s Child in 1999. Friends was must-see TV – this was one of the many good things about Thursday 15. Must See TV Here are the things that actually solve the problem. The definition of last is the one that occurs just prior to this one, and the definition of next is the one that occurs just after this one. Since we always speak with tense, if we refer to the future, this Sunday will always be the upcoming Sunday. So on Thursday, if you say you want to go shopping this Sunday, we all know that you mean 3 days from now. Therefore, if instead you say that you want to go shopping next Sunday, we can all know that you mean the Sunday after this upcoming Sunday, 10 days from now. Otherwise, you would have said This Sunday. Likewise, if you say that you WENT shopping THIS Sunday, we can all know that you went 4 days ago. And if you say that you went shopping LAST Sunday, you mean that you went shopping 11 days ago. Using the word THIS for the day that falls in the rolling week that applies to your tense solves the problem. This coming Sunday is 100% clear to everyone. This past Sunday is 100% clear to everyone. So if you properly use next as the Sunday that follows this Sunday, and last as the Sunday that preceeded this Sunday, there is no confusion. People simply need to use this, next and last, correctly. The confusion is really that many people don’t understand that next is not the one that is immediately upcoming. Next means the one that occurs just after THIS one. Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is ‘yourer’ than you.” – Dr. Seuss In the USSR of the 1970s and 1980s Thursday was the "Fish Day" ( Russian: Рыбный день, Rybny den), when the nation's foodservice establishments were supposed to serve fish (rather than meat) dishes. [14] To you things may sound stupid but to me “next Monday” is not logical (or absurd in your parlance) and something I’d never heard of until I moved countries.
