A to Z Challenge: Hebdomad

This month brings the A to Z Challenge, which I choose to meet with a series of words that thus far may have escaped your attention, sometimes deservedly so. Today's word is

Two hebdomads
Hebdomad
This is a group of seven, including a period of seven days. You know, as in "I'll see you next hebdomad."

I'm loving these and the pithy descriptions do make me laugh. Should have guessed the seven from the hebdo...I shall be back long before the hebdomad is up This is a seriously addictive theme. :-)

hebdo - my father would have known the derivation from his classical education but I'd have had to look it up if you hadn't told me. Quite how I'll work it into my next piece of flash fiction is another matter.

I have to admit that "Charlie Hebdo" came to mind when I saw the word.
