martes...trece
(idiom) Friday the 13th (lit. Tuesday the 13th) In Spain you can also hear the variation "martes y trece" when referring to this day of bad luck. Tuesdays are already thought to be bad luck, so the "y" between "martes" and "trece" emphasizes that there are two reasons for bad luck. Most Spanish-speaking countries are also familiar with the English version of Friday the 13th: viernes trece.
