| '''Orgaladh''' was the fourth day of the [[Númenóreans|Númenorean]] week, equivalent to our Tuesday. This name was adapted from the [[Sindarin]] usage '[[Orgaladhad]]' ('Day of the Trees', referring to the [[Two Trees]] of [[Valinor]]). The [[Númenóreans]] held the White Tree, [[Telperion]], in special reverence, and [[Nimloth of Númenor|Nimloth]], the tree that grew in the [[King's Court]] at [[Armenelos]], was said to be its descendant. Hence, they changed the name to Orgaladh ('Day of the Tree', referring to Telperion only).
