Thirteenth

/ˌθɜːrˈtiːnθ/ adjective/noun

Definition

The ordinal number corresponding to thirteen; coming after the twelfth in sequence.

Etymology

From Old English 'þreoteoða,' combining 'þreotiene' (thirteen) and the ordinal suffix '-tha.' The number thirteen has ancient Indo-European roots, but gained cultural significance as an unlucky number in various traditions, though this superstition is relatively recent in historical terms.

Kelly Says

Triskaidekaphobia (fear of the number 13) is so common that many buildings skip the 13th floor entirely! Interestingly, this superstition may stem from the Last Supper (13 people) or Norse mythology (Loki was the 13th guest at a divine dinner that ended in tragedy).
