<h2>February</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The strangest month of all is February.</p>
|
|
<p>February has only 28 days, but on <a href="../leap-years.html">Leap Years</a> February has 29 days!</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2>How to Remember</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can remember how many days in each month using this rhyme:</p>
|
|
<table style="border: 0; margin:auto;">
|
|
<tbody>
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td height="98"><i class="larger">30 days has September,<br>
|
|
April, June and November.<br>
|
|
All the rest have 31<br>
|
|
Except February alone,<br>
|
|
Which has 28 days clear<br>
|
|
And 29 in each leap year.</i></td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
</tbody></table>
|
|
<p>Or you can use the "knuckle method":</p>
|
|
<p class="center"><img src="images/months-knuckles.svg" alt="months on knuckles" height="200" width="400"><br>
|
|
A knuckle is "31 days", and in between each knuckle it isn't.<br>
|
|
And where you hands meet, the two knuckles are "July, August", which both have 31 days.<br>
|
|
(Note: the last knuckle isn't used)
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="example">
|
|
<p>Example: October is <b>on</b> a knuckles, so it has 31 days</p>
|
|
<p>But November is <b>not</b> on a knuckle (and in this case has 30 days)</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2>See The Days in Each Month</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>See the days in each month (use the arrows to change the month):</p>
|
|
|

<div class="script" style="height: 360px;">

<h2>The Moon</h2>
|
|
|
|
<table width="80%" border="0">
|
|
<tbody>
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td><img src="images/moon.jpg" alt="Moon" height="107" width="109"></td>
|
|
<td>The months were originally based on the movement of the moon (the words <b>moon</b> and <b>month</b> are related), but this did not work out perfectly to one year.</td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
</tbody></table>
|
|
<p>So they changed how many days in some months to make them all add up to one year.</p>

<h3>Fun Facts!</h3>
|
|
<p>Ancient Romans had 10 Months:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Martius for the god <b>Mars</b></li>
|
|
<li>Aprilis (aperio is Latin for "open", and flowers blossom in this month)</li>
|
|
<li>Maius for the goddess <b>Maia</b></li>
|
|
<li>Iunius for the goddess <b>Juno</b></li>
|
|
<li>Quintilis from Latin quinque meaning <b>five</b></li>
|
|
<li>Sextilis for <b>six</b></li>
|
|
<li>Septembris for <b>seven</b></li>
|
|
<li>Octobris for <b>eight</b></li>
|
|
<li>Novembris for <b>nine</b></li>
|
|
<li>Decembris for <b>ten</b> (remember "Decimal" means based on 10)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Then around 710 BC <i>Numa Pompilius</i>, the second King of Rome, <b>added</b> January (for the god Janus) and February (from Latin februum meaning purification).</p>
|
|
<p>Unfortunately this wrecked the nice numbering system of the later months.</p>
|
|
<p>Many years later (44 BC) Quintilis was renamed Iulius (July) in honour of <i>Julius Caesar</i>, and in 8 BC Sextilis was renamed Augustus (August) in honour of <i>Augustus</i>.</p>
