    逐字書展在星期二開始,所以我們放學後一起去吧。

    「Tuesday」就是中文的「星期二」,排在 Monday(星期一)後面、Wednesday(星期三)前面。英文的星期名字是專有名詞,所以第一個字母永遠大寫,不管出現在句子中間或後面。要說某一天發生的事,用 on Tuesday(英式與書面英文都這樣寫);美式口語常常直接說 Tuesday,把 on 省略掉。加上 s 變成 on Tuesdays,意思就從「那個星期二」變成「每個星期二」。

可以想成七天一輪的格子裡固定的一格:排在 Monday 之後、Wednesday 之前。它有兩種用法——可以指日曆上某一個特定的星期二(see you on Tuesday),也可以指這一格每週回來一次的那個位置(the class is on Tuesdays,每個星期二都有課)。英文裡星期名稱一律大寫。
