可以移到月份嗎?(才不會和月球混在一起)。--Menchi 05:43 2003年11月5日 (UTC)

應該命名為,作為一個時間單位,這樣更科學和嚴謹,月份在中文中比較口語化。另外《中國大百科全書》也使用月作為條目的名稱--Shizhao 05:49 2003年11月5日 (UTC)

希望有人能夠翻譯英文的月的條目,他們的非常詳細--Shizhao 06:04 2003年11月5日 (UTC)

公曆每年12個月是如何確定的?

既然公曆只需要確保一年的長短接近回歸年,那麼月的長短與設幾個月就顯得很隨意了了,比如設10個月,每月36或37天。為什麼偏偏設12個月呢?--Whw 17:54 2005年12月8日 (UTC)

考慮到月亮的周期變化,否則為什麼叫做月呢?當然不同的曆法可能就有不同的劃分,但是從精確程度來說,劃分為12個月和朔望月比較接近。--用心閣(對話頁) 19:00 2005年12月8日 (UTC)
月應該只是用農曆中相應的詞來翻譯month而已,農曆中的月的確與月相變化相關,但這與month無涉。如果month與moon在詞源上有關聯的話,上述一說似可成立。--Whw 19:17 2005年12月8日 (UTC)
網上看到的一段話「英文中的「月份」(month)和「星期一」(Monday) 也都來自於月亮(moon)這個詞」。另外曆法最初來自哪裏?應該就來自於氣候周期性變化和天象,因此天象中月亮的周期性變化就引起很大的關注。--用心閣(對話頁)
根據英文版en:Month:(moon gives month in the same way that wide gives width and broad gives breadth)。但是拉丁文的月亮是luna,月是mensis(跟月經的拉丁文有關)。
The primitive calendar month of many early civilizations began on the day of the new moon ... Thus the original 『months』 reckoned by the moon were superseded by a series of (usually) twelve periods each having a fixed number of days (generally 29, 30, or 31 ...); this artificial period retained the name of "month". ... The Roman republican calendar had years of 355, 377, 355, and 378 days in its four-year cycle, with 28 days in February and 29 or 31 days in the other months, and an extra (shorter) month every other year; this gave an average year length of 366.25 days. ...
... Twelve months of 30 and 29 days alternately make up the year (shorter than the solar year) in the various Muslim calendars, ... The same alternation of 30 and 29 days has also been adopted in the Jewish calendar, which is, however, lunisolar, and in its present form it is kept in step with the solar year by applying a certain rule for the intercalation of an extra month seven times every 19 years.

MOON n.1(特殊字母太多,我只改了一部份)
In the 16th and 17th centuries the spelling moneth was very common.
Moon的字源:
[Cognate with Old Frisian mōna, Middle Dutch māne, maen, mayn, mōne (Dutch maan), Old Saxon māno (Middle Low German mān, māne, mōne, mānt), Old High German māno (Middle High German māne, mān, māne, mōn, mānde, mānt, mōnde, mōnt, German Mond), Old Icelandic máni, Old Swedish mane (Swedish måne), Danish måne, Gothic mena, Crimean Gothic mine < a variant of the Germanic base of MONTH n.1 (with loss of final consonant and remodelling as n-stem).
所以month是從moon而來沒錯。 -- Toytoy 06:50 2005年12月9日 (UTC)

古羅馬曆最早一年只有十個月,後來才又增加了兩個月,可能和地中海氣候季節變化不明顯有關。--方洪漸 02:14 2005年12月13日 (UTC)
