Quote:


When we refer to a two-week period in Spanish, we say "fifteen days".



This is, may I assume, similar to the way the days were counted at the time of the crucifixion of Christ? He was crucified on a Friday, raised from the dead on Sunday, which is counted as the third day. Here in the West we would call Sunday the second day as it is the second day after Friday.

So the end of a two-week period in your terminology is the end of the 15th day including today?
