The names of the days of the week in many languages are derived from the names of the classical planets in Hellenistic astrology, which were in turn named after contemporary deities, a system introduced in the Roman Empire during Late Antiquity.
Definition of 'constituency'. constituency (kÉnstÉªtÊuÉnsi ) A constituency is an area for which someone is elected as the representative in a parliament or government. A particular constituency is a section of society that may give political support to a particular party or politician.
Organizations need to be clear about their target populations and know the demographics of their constituencies in comparison to the larger community. For example, a target population could be all of the people in an organization's local community, everyone in the state, or people living at or below the poverty level within a given community. After clearly defining its constituency, an organization can evaluate whether or not it serves all racial/ethnic groups within that constituency proportionately.
