Etymology
Marți comes from the Latin phrase Martis dies, the day of Mars, the Roman god of war. Romanian kept the old genitive form Martis and dropped the noun dies, the same pattern other Romance languages followed for this weekday. The result is a short, invariable word used without an article in everyday speech.
