July

英語月份小故事
JUNE
This name is probably form Junius , the name of Latin family to which the murderers of Julius
Caesar belonged . Some scholars believe , however , that the name June came form the goddess Juno who was the protectress of women since June has been the favorite month for marriages all the way down form earliest Rome . It can be that the ancient taboos against May marriages are responsible for our modern June rush to the altar . The English name for June was Sere-Monath . or “dry-month .”
JULY
The name of this month was proposed by Mark Antony , the Roman general and famous lover of Cleopatra . Antony suggested that this birthday month of Caius Julius Casesar be named Julius in his honor , and the name came into use the year of Caesar’s assassination . In English , the spelling became first Julie , then July . But before the English adopted the Latin name , they had called the month Mad-Monath , or “meadow-month ,” since the meadows were in bloom and the cattle were in pasture .
AUGUST
Octavian ,the first Roman emperor ,was the nephew of Julius Caesar , and longed to gain the fame and power of his uncle . He wanted , among other things , to have a month named after him . His birthday was in September , but he selected what is now known as August , for this particular month had been a fortunate one in his career . The Senate had given Octavian the official title of Augustus in honor of his distinguished sercices to the state , so the month he had chosen became Augistus , which we have shortened to August . The prosy and downright English had called this the Weod-Monath , or “weed-month ,” although , in fairness , the word “weed” yhen applied to greenery in general .
SEPTEMBER
Inasmush as the Roman year originally started in March ,September was their seventh month , and the name is taken from the Latin word septem which meant “seven .”When the calendar was changed and September became the ninth month , the name was not altered . Charlemagne , who was Emperor of the West at the beginning of the 9th century , refused to accept the Roman name and called September the “harvest-month .”England followed suit , and for a long time September was konwen as Harfest-Monath .The harvest then was largely barley , which the thirsty English promptly converted into ale .
OCTOBER
This is the season when the smoke of burning leaves is apt to be in the air . Even the Roman poet Martial called October “fumosus ,” or “smoky ,” because the time for lighting fires was at hand . Officially though , the name remained October from the Latin octo , “eight ,” for this month was the eighth on the list before the calendar was altered . The Roman general Germanicus Caesar wanted the month named after him , but he never got very far with his wish . The English first gave the name Win-Monath , or “wine-month ,” to October , and probably a little elderberry wine and such were concocted , but the real preoccupation was the “Brown October Ale “ that we still sing about today .
NOVEMBER
Since the Emperor Augustus had his month and Julius Caesar his , the polite and politic Romans thought it only proper to propose that November be renamed for the Emperor Tiberius . But Tiberius objected and said rather wittily , “What will you do if you have eleven Caesars?” So the name remained Novernber , from the Latin novem ,”nine .” To the forthright English November was the Blot-Monath , or “sacrifice-month” as it was the time when the heathen Anglo-Saxons
sacrificed cattle to their gods . Sometimes they also called it the Wind-Monath , for obvious reasons .
DECEMBER
Lucius Aelius Aurelius Commodus , Emperor of Rome toward the end of the 2nd century , once asked his mistress how she would like to see her name on the calendar . “Amazonius ,” was the name the emperor had in mind ,since the lady had once been painted as an Amazon , but the Senate was not sympathetic and apparently told him to gao watch the gladiators and lions instead . So December went on being called by its old name from decem , “ten,” since December was originally the tenth month . The common name among the English for December was Mid-Winter-Monath , although the Christians of the day called it Haligh-Monath , or “Holy-Month ,”because of birth of Christ .
英語月份名稱的來歷
公歷一年有12個(gè)月，但不少人并不知道12 個(gè)月的英語名稱的來歷。公歷起源于古羅馬歷法。羅馬的英語原來只有10 個(gè)月，古羅馬皇帝決定增加兩個(gè)月放在年尾，后來朱里斯*凱撒大帝把這兩個(gè)月移到年初，成為1月.2月，原來的1月.2月便成了3月.4月，依次類推。這就是今天世界沿用的公歷。
January——1月
在羅馬傳說中，有一位名叫雅努斯的守護(hù)神，生有先后兩副臉，一副回顧過去，一副要眺望未來。人們認(rèn)為選擇他的名字作為除舊迎新的第一個(gè)月月名，很有意義。英語
January，便是由這位守護(hù)神的拉丁文名字January演變而來的。
February——2月
每年2 月初，羅馬人民都要?dú)⑸嬀?，歡慶菲勃盧姆節(jié)。這一天，人們常用一種牛、草制成的名叫Februa的鞭子，抽打不育的婦女，以求懷孕生子。這一天，人們還要懺悔自己過去一年的罪過，洗刷自己的靈魂，求得神明的饒恕，使自己成為一個(gè)貞潔的人。英語2月February，便是由拉丁文Februar-ius(即菲勃盧姆節(jié))演變而來。
March-----3月
3月，原是羅馬舊歷法的1 月，新年的開始。凱撒大帝改革歷法后，原來的1月變成3月，但羅馬人仍然把3 月看做是一年的開始。另外，按照傳統(tǒng)習(xí)慣，3月是每年出征遠(yuǎn)戰(zhàn)的季節(jié)。為了紀(jì)念戰(zhàn)神瑪爾斯，人們便把這位戰(zhàn)神的拉丁名字作為3月的月名。英語3月March，便是由這位戰(zhàn)神的名字演變而來的。
April——4月
羅馬的4月，正是大地回春.鮮花初綻的美好季節(jié)。英文4月April便由拉丁文April(即開花的日子)演變而來。
May——5月
羅馬神話中的女神瑪雅，專門司管春天和生命。為了紀(jì)念這位女神，羅馬人便用她的名字——拉丁文Maius命名5月，英文5月May便由這位女神的名字演變而來。
June——6月
羅馬神話中的裘諾，是眾神之王，又是司管生育和保護(hù)婦女的神。古羅馬對(duì)她十分崇
敬，便把6月奉獻(xiàn)給她，以她的名字——拉丁文Junius來命名6 月。英語6月June便由這位女神的名字演變而來。也有學(xué)者認(rèn)為，Junius可能是個(gè)代拉丁家族中一個(gè)顯赫貴族的姓氏。
July——7月
羅馬統(tǒng)治者朱里斯*凱撒大帝被刺死后，著名的羅馬將軍馬克*按東尼建議將凱撒大帝誕生的
7月，用凱撒的名字——拉丁文Julius(即朱里斯)命名之。這一建議得到了元老院的通過。英語7月July由此演變而來。
August——8月
朱里斯*凱撒死后，由他的甥孫屋大維續(xù)任羅馬皇帝。為了和凱撒齊名，他也想用自己的名字來命名一個(gè)月份。他的生日在9月，但他選定8月。因?yàn)樗腔?，羅馬元老院在8 月授予他Augustus(奧古斯都)的尊號(hào)。于是，他決定用這個(gè)尊號(hào)來命名8月。原來8月比7月少一天，為了和凱撒平起平坐，他又決定從2月中抽出一天加在8月上。從此，2月便少了一天。英語8月August便由這位皇帝的拉丁語尊號(hào)演變而來。
September——9月
老歷法的7月，正是凱撒大帝改革歷法后的9月，拉丁文Septem是“7”月的意思。雖然歷法改革了，但人們?nèi)砸u用舊名稱來稱呼9月。英語9月September，便由 此演變而來。
October——10月
英語10月，來自拉丁文Octo，即“8”的意思。它和上面講的9月一樣，歷法改了，稱呼仍然沿用未變。
November——11月
羅馬皇帝奧古斯都和凱撒都有了自己名字命名的月份，羅馬市民和元老院要求當(dāng)時(shí)的羅馬皇帝梯比里烏斯用其名命名11月。但梯比里烏斯沒有同意，他明智地對(duì)大家說，如果羅馬每個(gè)皇帝都用自己的名字來命名月份，那么出現(xiàn)了第13個(gè)皇帝怎么辦?于是，11月仍然保留著舊稱Novem，即拉丁文“9”的意思。英語11月November便由此演變而來。
December——12月羅馬皇帝琉西烏斯要把一年中最后一個(gè)月用他情婦的Amagonius的名字來命名，但遭但元老院的反對(duì)。于是，12月仍然沿用舊名Decem，即拉丁文“10”的意思。英語12月December，便由此演變而來。
