září is correct. We differ between zářit and svítit. And sun shines - Slunce svítí. But in September Slunce září, because it is low and shines into our eyes - and it is last month without clouds and dark days.
The Roman numbering used to make sense, as there used to be ten months. Then they decided to add two more months, July and August if I'm not wrong, but didn't change the numbers. So not only they got lazy and stopped using names of gods, they didn't even change the numbers when it didn't make sense anymore... And this is what English decided to use... Well I'm glad at least you tried to come up with some new names.
The original Roman year started in March and ended in December. Months we know today as July and August were called Quintilis and Sextilis back then. The period between December and March were days of festivities and Romans had no need to divide this period into months. This 10-month calendar was introduced by Romulus, the first king of Rome, and it didn't last very long as it was reformed by his successor, Numa Pompilius, who introduced January and February, thus creating the calendar we would find quite familiar even today.
NEver heard other explanation for prosinec then that prosinec is from prosit - because in this time old czech pleased nature for good winter to let them survive. It is connected to Saturnálie, old pre-christian slavic tradition.
Název je odvozen od předpokládaného praslovanského slovesa prosinoti - „probleskovat, prosvítat“, s odkazem na to, že slunce v prosinci jen probleskuje (modrošedými) mraky. Stejný kořen -sin- se dochoval v adjektivu sinalý, „mrtvolně bledý“
You already said in the previous video that Romans considered March to be the first month of the year. So the numbering September, November, and December is perfectly logical if you start from March as the first. In fact, before the July was renamed after Julius Caesar, it was called Quintus. Julius Caesar did not invent the 12-month calendar. That was already invented by Egyptians, who worshiped the sun, instead of the lunar calendar, which typically has 13 months. Caesar's invention was the addition of leap years to avoid the shift of the seasons. Yes, Romans did not have much imagination. Even the names of their children are mostly numbers: Septimius, Octavian ... Indeed, what have they ever done for us? Great video, btw.
@antoninsebera152 angličtina je takový frázový jazyk. A navíc si kvůli spelingu můsíš pamatovat výslovnost prakticky každého slovíčka, přičemž třeba v němčině jsou pro výslovnost jasná pravidla.

Much better is to have month names related to nature and some logical activity. I hate English month names. There is no logic in it. Just some antic Rome non sence. It is really hard to learn names of month in English. I still have troubles with it after 30, yeara of learning English 😂
Do you agree with my new names for the last 4 months of the year in English? Do you have other suggestions? Please share.
English is also great. When you pronounce for example liar and lawyer, there is no big diffetence 😂
The lawyer have for sure origin in liar....

Ok thanks, that does make sense.

Thanks a lot, yes I feel it's time to change those names:)

Pleaded not pleased
"Pleased" znamená "uspokojovat" :)

ale taky jsem si to vzdy vysvetloval, prositi...ve smyslu - > at je zima milosrdna :)
I would recoment checking film "Vyšší princip" (Highier principle) for true meaning of 17.11.
Ok thanks for the tip.
😂👍👏🙋🇨🇿
červen becomes from czech word čeveň which literally means red color. Červenec is from two words: červen + konec which means red color + end ;)
That does make a lot of sense:)

Srpen dává pro název tohoto měsíce mnohem větší smysl než August
Ono vubec ceske nazvy jsou logicke a anglicke vubec. Pamatovat si ty anglicke nazvy to da kupu prace

Prosinec was called before Prasinec, which is from word prase(pig)
Ok thanks for the details, I appreciate it:)
