Etymology

From Средњи Енглески month, moneth, from Стари Енглески mōnaþ (“month”), from Пра-Германски *mēnōþs (“month”), from Proto-Indo-European *mḗh₁n̥s (“moon, month”), probably from Proto-Indo-European *meh₁- (“to measure”), referring to the moon's phases as the measure of time, equivalent to Африканс. Cognate with Шкотски moneth (“month”); North Frisian muunt (“month”); Saterland Frisian Mound (“month”), Холандски maand (“month”); German Low German Maand, Monat (“month”); Немачки Monat (“month”); Дански and Norwegian Bokmål måned (“month”); Norwegian Nynorsk and Шведски månad (“month”); Icelandic mánuði (“month”); Латински mēnsis (“month”); Антички Грчки μήν (mḗn); Јерменски ամիս (amis); Old Irish mí; Old Church Slavonic мѣсѧць (měsęcĭ).

Pronunciation

Noun

month (plural months or (rare) month)

  1. A period into which a year is divided, historically based on the phases of the moon.
    July is my favourite month.
    • 2013 август 3, “Boundary problems”, in The Economist, volume 408, number 8847:
      Economics is a messy discipline: too fluid to be a science, too rigorous to be an art. Perhaps it is fitting that economists’ most-used metric, gross domestic product (GDP), is a tangle too. GDP measures the total value of output in an economic territory. Its apparent simplicity explains why it is scrutinised down to tenths of a percentage point every month.
  2. A period of 30 days, 31 days, or some alternation thereof.
    We went on holiday for two months.
    • 1959, Georgette Heyer, chapter 1, in The Unknown Ajax:
      Charles had not been employed above six months at Darracott Place, but he was not such a whopstraw as to make the least noise in the performance of his duties when his lordship was out of humour.
    • 2011 септембар 29, Jon Smith, “Tottenham 3-1 Shamrock Rovers”, in BBC Sport:
      With the north London derby to come at the weekend, Spurs boss Harry Redknapp opted to rest many of his key players, although he brought back Aaron Lennon after a month out through injury.
  3. (obsolete, in the plural) A woman's period; menstrual discharge.
