lunes gris; lunes triste; lunes tristón; lunes deprimente; lunes azul : La Fundación del Español Urgente(Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que la expresión "blue Monday", empleada desde su acuñación en el año 2005 para referirse al tercer lunes de enero, en español es "lunes gris", ["lunes] triste", ["lunes] tristón" o ["lunes] deprimente", como indica la RAE [...]. No es apropiado el equivalente "lunes azul", pues, si bien la voz inglesa "blue" hace referencia a este color en su primera acepción, en este caso se está empleando como sinónimo de triste o deprimido, significado igualmente recogido en el Diccionario Oxford. 1, record 1, Spanish, - lunes%20gris
