(based on amount of time it takes the ‘moon’ to orbit the ‘earth’)

*1 ‘MONTH’* =
(’27 days’ / ‘7 hours’ / ’43 minutes’ / ‘11.6 seconds’)
OR
(~ 27.32166 days)
.
(a ‘month’ is a ‘unit’ of ‘time’ (used with ‘calendars’) which is approximately as long as a ‘natural period’ related to the motion of the ‘moon’)
.
(month + moon are ‘cognates’)
.
(the traditional concept arose with the cycle of ‘moon phases’; such ‘months’ (or ‘lunations’) are ‘synodic months’ + last approximately ‘29.53 days’)
(from excavated ‘tally sticks’, researchers have deduced that people counted ‘days’ in relation to the ‘moon’s phases’ as early as the ‘paleo-lithic age’)
.
(‘synodic months’ (based on the moon’s ‘orbital period’ with respect to the ‘earth / sun line’), are still the basis of many ‘calendars’ today + are used to divide the ‘year’)
