No, but it's quite possible your bike will be stolen every Friday if you live in Amsterdam

[QUESTION]
Can "vrijdag" be translated as "free day" since it's compounded from vrij (free) and dag (day)?
I remember that when I was an elementary student, I didn't go to the school every Friday instead of Sunday.

Here elke is used for every. In a previous sentence "De eenden gaan iedere avond" iedere was used. I've seen an explanation that ieder/iedere is more applicable for people, and for other instances we should use elk/elke. Does this make sense? And if yes, why was iedere used instead of elke? Thanks :)
Some people have a preference of ieder(e) for people and elk(e) for everything else. However that's not a set rule and both can be used in any case.

So we can't actually know which when to use... ? Will both of them be correct?
