Because feast days in ... almanacs and calendars were frequently written or printed in red, a red-letter day came to be a term for one that was special. 3, record 2, English, - red%2Dletter%20day
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Red-letter means simply "memorable or important, esp. in a happy or favorable way". The expression comes from the long-established practice of using red ink to indicate holy days in ecclesiastical calendars. A red-letter day - literally a day written in red letters - was a holy day, or church festival, and thus came to mean "any memorable or happy day". 4, record 2, English, - red%2Dletter%20day
