Now I'm wondering what month "19" is named...
- calvinmorrison 2y agoWell the 8th month ain't October
- inanutshellus 2y agoSuper bummed I'm not getting the joke. What's the segue to 8th month (August) and October (10th month) from calvin@bison:~/work$ tree -d | head . ├── 2022 │ ├── 04 │ │ ├── 19 ?
- em-bee 2y agoocto is latin for 8. just like septem is 7, novem is 9 and decem is 10. so the parent comment is saying that while at one point it may have been possible to derive the name from the number of the month, that is no longer the case because names and numbers do not match up and therefor the name would not be undevigintiber. thought it might be septendecimber ;-)
- em-bee 2y agothe baha'i calendar has 19 months, so the 19th month would be Alá or Loftiness: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bah%C3%A1%CA%BC%C3%AD_calendar#Months https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bah%C3%A1%CA%BC%C3%AD_calendar... but then the year 2022 would be far in the future as the current baha'i year is 181. that date in the baha'i calendar would be march 4th 3866 in the gregorian calendar
