mylangbox: The months and what they mean in Czech. Unlike the Western European languages, Czech names aren’t derived from the Latin and instead reflect the imagery of the month they name. Interesting note on May : the original name was ‘máj’, which does come from Latin, but gradually changed to ‘květen’ which was an attempt at translating the French ‘lune des fleurs’.The word lives on thanks to a very famous Czech poem called ‘Máj’ by Karel Hynek Mácha -- source link
