Tuesday is named for Tew, the Norse god of war. The Latin equivalent is Mars. That’s why Tuesday is Martes in Spanish, Mardi in French, and Martedì in Italian
“Tuesday was named for the Roman god of war, Mars, so in Latin was known as dies Martis. However, the Germanic god of war was known as Tiu and the English day of the week is derived from this Germanic god’s name instead, first known as Tiwsday and eventually Tuesday.”
