About

The word "周四" (Thursday) is formed by combining two characters: "周", which means "week", and "四", which is the number four. It follows the standard Chinese convention for naming weekdays, where the structure is simply "Week" + [Ordinal Number]. Therefore, "周四" literally translates to "Week Four", directly indicating its position as the fourth day in the conventional seven-day weekly cycle.
