Our seasons in English are in a muddle (though there's no problem in Cornish). Who did the crime? Two Roman emperors is the answer - Julius and Augustus. Now the seventh month and the eighth month are named after those emperors. So, the numbered months are in a correct sequence, but they are not in the right place. The seventh month is now the ninth month. The month of white straw in Cornish - no problem. The eighth month is now the tenth month. The month of stag bellowing in Cornish - no problem. The ninth month is now the eleventh month. The dark/black month in Cornish - no problem. The tenth month is now the twelfth month. The month of dark/black weather in Cornish - no problem. Plants are muddled as well - some of them are blooming too early. There is a snow warning for Devon. Will it reach Cornwall?
