{{multiple issues|{{Refimprove|date=December 2018}}{{notability|date=May 2014}}}}{{merge to|Slavic calendar|date=October 2017}} {{Use dmy dates|date=July 2013}}The Croatian months used with the Gregorian calendar by Croats differ from the original Latin month names: | No. | Latin name | English name | Croatian name | Croatian meaning | | 1 | Ianuarius | January | Siječanj | [https://web.archive.org/web/20110815164754/http://en.crodict.com/english-croatian/sije%C4%87i month of cutting or hewing (wood)], but there are also dialectal terms 'svečan, svičen, sičan' that have a meaning 'festive', so there is a possibility of a meaning 'festive month' (as there are several holidays celebrated in January)[1] | | 2 | Februarius | February | Veljača | month in which days become longer (oveljiti se = to get bigger);[2] also, possibly from "Velja Noć" (Great Night), old Slavic pagan festival that falls in modern-day February | | 3 | Martius | March | Ožujak | lying month (laž>ož; laž = a lie), because the weather is changing often | | 4 | Aprilis | April | Travanj | month of grass growing{{dead link|date=August 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} | | 5 | Maius | May | Svibanj | month of budding (svibovina = Cornel tree) | | 6 | Iunius | June | Lipanj | month of the lipa{{dead link|date=August 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} (lime / linden tree) | | 7 | Iulius | July | Srpanj | month of reaping (with a sickle){{dead link|date=August 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} | | 8 | Augustus | August | Kolovoz | month of driving the wagon (for harvest) — [https://web.archive.org/web/20110815163949/http://en.crodict.com/english-croatian/kolo kolo] + voziti | | 9 | September | September | Rujan | month of animal mating (from archaic verb for animal roar "rjuti", referencing mating calls) | | 10 | October | October | Listopad | month of falling leaves — [https://web.archive.org/web/20110815164622/http://en.crodict.com/english-croatian/list list] + [https://web.archive.org/web/20110815164718/http://en.crodict.com/english-croatian/padati padati] | | 11 | November | November | Studeni | [https://web.archive.org/web/20110815164920/http://en.crodict.com/english-croatian/studen cold month] | | 12 | December | December | Prosinac | the beginning of the Sun's shining ([https://web.archive.org/web/20110815164835/http://en.crodict.com/english-croatian/sinuti sinuti] = to dawn);[3] probably used for January at first, as it's still often used for that month in other Slavic languages. Also, less probably month of begging (for food, f.e.), from prositi = to beg. |
Some names are derived from archaic Croatian-Slavic words that are no longer found in standard Croatian dictionaries. In some cases even the meaning of those words is ambiguous. In Macedonian, Listopad is also the (archaic) name for October but Polish/Czech listopad, Belarusian 'listapad' ('Лістапад') and Ukrainian "листопад" mean November. Likewise, Polish sierpień, Czech srpen and Ukrainian Серпень mean August rather than July, Czech říjen means October rather than September, Slovenian prosinec means January rather than December, and Polish lipiec, Belarusian Лiпень, and Ukrainian Липень mean July rather than June.
