I believe it's the opposite (only marry in r-months).
But unlike English, in Polish r-months are randomishly distributed over the year:
• March (marzec)
• June (czerwiec)
• August (sierpień)
• September (wrzesień)
• October (październik)
• December (grudzień)
… so it's not like either rule would make any sense.
- praptak 7y agoI too have heard the positive version of the rule. The randomness might be intentional, so as to make one wait a random but not too large number of months, perhaps to discourage marrying in haste or as an artificial (but reasonable) constraint on planning to increase the perceived value of the event.
- nicoburns 7y agoPerhaps that's also why there are two variants, so that it works whichever month you are currently in!
