00:00Good morning, iBelievers!
00:02Good morning!
00:03Ate Shai, can you believe it?
00:04It's been months already, right?
00:06Wow!
00:07It's been a few months already.
00:08It's Christmas again.
00:09Yes, Kuya Chris.
00:10You're right.
00:11Months really fly by so fast.
00:13And speaking of months,
00:15we have a QOTD, or question of the day,
00:18from Thomas Camus,
00:209 years old, from Pasay City.
00:23He asks,
00:24where did the name of the months in the calendar come from?
00:27That's a very interesting question.
00:30I'm also curious about that.
00:32Of course, we have an answer for that.
00:34Of course!
00:37Where did the name of the months come from?
00:40January came from Janus,
00:43a Roman god with two faces.
00:45One facing the past,
00:47and the other facing the future.
00:48That's perfect!
00:51February came from Februa,
00:53a Latin word that means to cleanse.
00:56And in February,
00:58a festival for the cleansing of the heart and soul.
01:03March came from the Roman god of wars, Mars.
01:07April came from the word apirio,
01:09which means to bloom like flowers every spring.
01:13May came from Maya,
01:15the Roman goddess of growing plants.
01:18June came from Juno,
01:20the goddess of marriage and patron of femininity.
01:23July came from the Roman dictator Julius Caesar,
01:27who invented the modern calendar.
01:31August came from Caesar's nephew,
01:34the first Roman emperor.
01:37September came from the Latin word septem,
01:40meaning seven.
01:41Huh?
01:42Isn't that the ninth month?
01:44That's because July and August were included late.
01:48Because of that,
01:49October became the tenth month,
01:51even though Octo means eight.
01:54November came from the word novem,
01:56meaning nine.
01:57I think I know what's next.
02:00And December came from decem,
02:02meaning ten.
02:04Because July and August were included late,
02:07the last four months of the year were in the wrong number.
