mercoledì
Wednesday
noun mehr-koh-leh-DEE Less Common
Origin: from Latin 'Mercurii dies' (day of Mercury)
Usage Note
Mercoledì is invariable, so the plural is unchanged: due mercoledì. Like all Italian weekdays except Sunday it is masculine and lowercase, and the bare form means 'on Wednesday' without a preposition.
Examples
"Ci vediamo mercoledì pomeriggio."

We'll see each other Wednesday afternoon.

Us we-see Wednesday afternoon.
