RE: month names

[pycyn@aol.com]

Well, actually {la .oktobr} makes a lot of sense.  As ivan points
out, numbered months are ambiguous, depending on calendar
involved and there are at least five in common usage, not to
mention dozens more that get referred to from time to time (I don't
even discount uudz kale katunob).  But, so far as I can remember --
which is not very far in this case, most places that use the western
calendar also use the month names, suitably modified in the local
dialects (enero for january in spanish, aout for august in french and
so on).  I am not sure what happens in more remote (from me)
countries where the western calendar is used for civil purposes but
some other serves for reality (festivals, birthdays, ....).
Days of the week on the other hand seem to vary pretty freely, so that the 
"oneday"
"twoday"... patterns seems more universalizable than any "sunday","moonday",
"thundergodday" or whatever pattern.
