The Nahan Calendar (Mosici: an-Naranc vinnaimcirte an-Naranc vinnaimcirte /ãnaʀãk vẽnɛmkertɛ/) is the calendar system used in Imerchal.
Mechanics
The Calendar divides the year into 12 months (Mosici: naim naim /nɛm/) of 30 days. Each are further divided into 5 6-day weeks (Mosici: raínal raínal /ʀẽnal/; Occitan: rainal /rajnal/, not setmena, which is reserved for the gregorian week). A standalone 5- or 6-day week is added at the end of the year to keep the start of the year on the spring equinox[1]
The year are numbered according to an era. Historically eras started at the change of a monarch. In Imerchal, the years are counted since the crossing from Asteron.
Name of the Months
In mosici the months are less named and more numbered. indeed their names are constructed by compounding the Mosici number for the month with the word naim. In Occitan and English, the month names are borrowed from Mosici
| Month # | Mosici | Occitan | English | Month # | Mosici | Occitan | English | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | monnaim monnaim /mõnɛm/ | monèm | Monem | 7 | monselnaim monselnaim /mõsɛlnɛm/ | monselnèm | Monselnem | |
| 2 | leinaim leinaim /lĩnɛm/ | linèm | Leenem | 8 | leiselnaim leiselnaim /lisɛlnɛm/ | liselnèm | Leeselnem | |
| 3 | tepnaim tepnaim /tɛpnɛm/ | tepnèm | Tepnem | 9 | tepselnaim tepselnaim /tɛpsɛlnɛm/ | Tepselnèm | Tepselnem | |
| 4 | volnaim volnaim /βolnɛm/ | volnèm | Volnem | 10 | volselnaim volselnaim /βolsɛlnɛm/ | volselnèm | Volselnem | |
| 5 | narnaim narnaim /naʀnɛm/ | narnèm | Narnem | 11 | narselnaim narselnaim /naʀsɛlnɛm/ | narselnèm | Narselnem | |
| 6 | selnaim selnaim /sɛlnɛm/ | selnèm | Selnem | 12 | selleinaim selleinaim /sɛlĩnɛm/ | selinèm | Seleenem | |
| R | relnaim relnaim /ʀɛlnɛm/ | relnèm | Relnem | |||||
Writing dates
| an-sialtorec | selnar starellei staó, | volselnaimc | volc an-raínalc | monc an-vin |
| an-Poarenc | selnar starellei staó, | volselnaimc | volc an-raínalc | monc an-vin |
| /ãpɔʀɛ̃k | sɛwnaʀ staʀɛwʟi sto | βowsɛwnɛmk | βowk ãʀẽnawk | mõk ãβẽ/ |
| Of the Crossing (the era) | 318, (the year) | of Volselnem | the 4th week | the first day |
In short it may be written as po-sfsmm,fm,f,m (PO-318/10/4/1 in Latin), sm,s, or r,, (12/6/ or R//) is used as the month/week pair for the intercalary week.
Days of the week
The days of the week are simpy numbered as ordinals:
- Mosici: monc leic tec volc narc selc monc leic tec volc narc selc /mõk lik tɛk βolk naʀk sɛlk/
- Occitan: premier, segond, tresen, quatren, cinquen, seisen
- English: First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth
- ↑ In practice the 6-day weeks happen on Nahan years that end on a Gregorian leap year, and the spring equinox is fixed to be on Gregorian 21 March. I do not want to do the astronomy and maths.
