The telephone call that forever changed the lives of the Dodd family of Chicago came at noon on Thursday, June 8, 1933, as William E. Dodd sat at his desk at the University of Chicago.” – Erik Larson

Just like in where’s or there’s (contractions of where is and there is), the apostrophe signals that two words have been combined. Remember, any time you use it’s, you must be able to substitute either it is or it has in the word’s place. You’re very uncompromising straight talking almost to the point of aggression but I don’t take offence on this! A traditional Thanksgiving dinner will include a roasted turkey, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce. Okay, now we’re starving! Thanksgiving is one of the biggest holidays in the US 18.

To be honest, I think your English teacher did you a disservice in response to that story you told in Grade 7; it’s the sort of seed that strict grammarians sow that can really limit communication. It’s easy to dismiss a quirk in language as incorrect, and therefore to be avoided, but while starting a story “There was this man.” may be grammatically questionable I would not say it is incorrect. It is an informal use of ‘this’ which is often employed (certainly from my area of the English-speaking world) to introduce an unspecified noun in a familiar way. ‘This’ is very often used this way in spoken English, and indeed if you were writing an informal story from a particular perspective it would be perfectly acceptable. To say there is only one way ‘this’ should be used will inevitably not only limit your own range of expression, but your understanding of others. I don’t see this as a corruption, merely the way language evolves to suit the needs of communication, which is, after all, exactly what language is for. Reply In Catholic liturgy, Thursday is referred to in Latin as feria quinta. Portuguese, unlike other Romance languages, uses the word quinta-feira, meaning "fifth day of liturgical celebration", that comes from the Latin feria quinta used in religious texts where it was not allowed to consecrate days to pagan gods. There are a number of modern names imitating the naming of Thursday after an equivalent of "Jupiter" in local tradition. In Buddhist Thailand Thursday is considered the "Teacher's Day", and it is believed that one should begin one's education on this auspicious day. Thai students still pay homages to their teachers in specific ceremony always held on a selected Thursday. And graduation day in Thai universities, which can vary depending on each university, almost always will be held on a Thursday. Without several notebooks I can't function, everything from what I'm supposed to be doing, when, where and with whom, lists of stuff to remember and I've kept it hidden my whole life.Thursday is perhaps the worst day of the week. It’s nothing in itself; it just reminds you that the week has been going on too long.” – Nicci French It’s Thursday and it really feels like a Thursday. Sometimes things just work out.” – Demetri Martin
