Romanian calendar

The Romanian calendar is the Gregorian, adopted in 1919. However, the traditional Romanian calendar has its own names for the months. In modern Romania and Moldova, the Gregorian calendar is exclusively used for business and government transactions and predominates in popular use as well. Nevertheless, the traditional names of the months do appear in some contexts, for instance on ecclesiastical calendars produced by the Romanian Orthodox Church.

History
Romania adopted the Gregorian calendar on 1 April 1919, which became 14 April 1919. In 2019, the National Bank of Romania released a commemorative coin of 10 silver lei to celebrate the centenary of Romania's adoption of the calendar. ==Traditional month names==
Traditional month names
Most of the traditional names of the months are of Latin origin, which indicates that their use predates the Slavic contact around the 8th century. Essentially all are constructed as agent nouns, most often with the suffix -ar, inherited from Latin -arius. As in Latin, the months are expressed using genitive constructions, i.e.: suntem în luna lui cuptor (literally: "we are in the month of July"). Note that the use of lui cuptor as opposed to cuptorului indicates that the months are analysed as animate. ==See also==
