oops, {madmese} as in the original {madjio} 

.u'iru'e .iiru'e .i lo si'o cmevla tarmi mi se stidi

.janu'ári'us. .febru'ári'us. .márti'us. .aprílis. .máius. (ja .május.)
.júni'us. .júli'us. .augústus. .septémber. .október. .novémber.
.decémber.

How would you say "Every February" using these?

Most likely he used Italian simply because the Latin for "May" namely
"maius/maio-" is insufficiently crunchy for brivla.  IMO Latin would
be the right language to Lojbanize here. But, it seems impossible to
import the full Latin month names recognizably into fu'ivla space.  So
maybe the suffix idea is the way to go...

janmese febmese marmese prilmese magmese junmese julmese

ke'u, jun- and jul- are too close and can be easily mixed together.

.augmese
sep(te)mese .ok(to)mese dekmese
