July 10, 200619 yr It's the lunar calendar you silly people. :rolleyes: The Controller But....Do they still call it July???? Edited July 10, 200619 yr by findingout
July 10, 200619 yr Haha, this is funny, I think they just go by calling the year after an animal or somehting!! Happy extroadinary day people!!!
July 11, 200619 yr No the chinese new year is in aug, cse last year when i was on holidays, all these waiters were always saying happy new year, oh wait no, i think it was happy xmas they were saying?? I duno the chinese calander is ****ed up anyway, lol, how did everyone get talking about this in a Delta forum?
July 11, 200619 yr This is crazy. Chinese New Year is on a slightly different day every year. This year it was on Jan 29. Btw it's the year of the dog. WOOF!!
July 11, 200619 yr You people need to be educated. The lunar calendar follows the moon, hence the name "lunar". Every month there are 28 days, because that follows the moon. Chinese months don't have names - they're just first month, second month, third month, etc. Due to the 28 days, some years have 13 months, to make up for the loss of days. Anyway, the point here is that "July the 8th" in the lunar calendar would be the 8th day of the 7th month of that year. And that will be the same day as the 1st August in the solar calendar of that year, which follows the sun. I hope you've all learnt something.
