When I was learning english as an inmigrant kid, I was like: why the fuck do they name the months

Because in Chinese, it was just numbers:

  • January --> 一 1st Month
  • October --> 十 10th Month
  • December --> 十二 12th Month

月 = Month

And the characters before are just a number

Simple

(Omg I did it again, I went on a rant about language... 🙃)
