== Months of the year ==
Many of the Latin names for the months are derived from the names of gods and goddesses. For example, January is named after Janus, the god of beginnings and endings, while July is named after Julius Caesar.
The Latin names for the months have had a significant impact on many modern languages, including English. For example, the English word "March" comes directly from the Latin "Martius". The English word "September" comes from the Latin "September," which means "seventh".
