Hello September |
The name September comes from the Latin word septem, which simply means seven, and it was the seventh of ten months of old Roman Calender (which was in use as early as 153 BC). After calendar reforms, January and February being added to beginning of the year, and September was shifted to ninth but it retained its name.
Before Julian Reform, September only had 29 days, but later a day was added to make it 30 day-month.
And India will be celebrating Teacher's Day on 5th of September and Brazil, it's Independence Day on 7th September.
So Goodbye August, Hello September!
