不像中文裡簡單的一到十二月,在許多語言中,各個月份都有屬於自己的名字。
大部分歐洲語言的月份名字來自羅馬神話中的神明,而波蘭的月份名字,則是從農民曆來的!
就讓我們一個個來看它們的起源吧:
Styczeń(一月):「stykać」意思是會面的意思,代表舊的一年與新的一年在一月彷彿見到彼此一樣連接起來。
Luty(二月):在古波蘭文中,「luty」表示「強烈的」、「冷霜」、「極寒」。
Marzec(三月):「marznąć」表示「使……結凍」,也有些人認為這個字來自羅馬神話中的戰神Mars,波文拼法是「Martius」。
Kwiecień(四月):「kwiecie」表示花兒。在經歷極寒的二到三月後,終於春暖花開。
Maj(五月):這是唯一一個確認來自羅馬曆的月份名字,女神「Maia」是豐饒、成長之神,在波蘭文中也是同樣的意思。相近的字中,「majowka」代表的則是戶外旅行。
Czerwiec(六月):波蘭字「czerw」表示抓取,抓取什麼呢?答案是蜜蜂或蛾的幼蟲!在六月,以前的人們會抓幼蟲拿來曬乾,再製成紅色或紫色的顏料。也有人說六月這個波蘭字是來自「czerwiec」,代表變紅或成熟的意思。
Lipiec(七月):七月的名字來自「lipa」這個表示「椴樹」的波蘭字。椴樹在這個時期開花,在波蘭尤其普遍。波蘭詩人揚·科哈諾夫斯基(Jan Kochanowski)就曾作一首詩:〈關於椴樹(Na lipe)〉,其中一段「gosciu siadz pod ma lipa a odpoczyn sobie」即表示「貴客,請到我的椴樹下歇息」。
Sierpień(八月):「sierp」代表鐮刀,在這個豐收的季節,鐮刀自然是不可或缺的工具。
Wrzesień(九月):「wrzosy」表示石楠花,九月時,這種美麗的紫色會在各處盛放。
Październik(十月):「paździerz」表示亞麻或大麻的木質乾燥部分。從前這兩種植物是用來做布料的,十月的時候,風會帶走田地上所有的製完布料後剩餘的部分,在波蘭文中叫作「paździerze」。
Listopad(十一月):這個字來自「padajace liscie」,即落葉之意。
Grudzień(十二月):十二月寒冷的天氣讓地面都結冰了,「gruda」這個字就是指結冰的地面哦!

Did you know that Poland did not adopt Latin names for months and has its own unique names? Unlike many other European countries that derive the names of the months from the Roman names of gods, caesars' or numbers, Polish names of the months take their origins in farmers' calendar. Check out their unique names in the list below.
-
1. Styczeń - stykać means "to meet" - "to join" since the old year "meets the new year in January
2. Luty - luty in old Polish means "fierce", "bitter frost", "freezing cold"
3. Marzec - from marznac meaning " to freeze". Some people believe that this name comes also from Roman God "Martius" - in Polish Mars.
4. Kwiecień - from kwiecie - flowers - a blooming month.
5. Maj - this is the only name which was adopted from Roman calendar devoted to goddess Maia. Maia was the Roman female deity of growth or fertility.This name gained its own meaning in the Polish language, for instance as majowka- the outdoor trip.
6. Czerwiec - from czerw meaning "grab" - the larva of a bee or moth. In this month people were picking up the larves, dry them in the sun, and then made from it a red or purple die (pigment); therefore the name "czerw" comes from "redden" and some sources also derive the name of Polish June from a Polish word "czerwienic" - to redden or rippen
7. Lipiec - from lipa - "linden tree" - which flowers in that time; this tree is very popular in Poland. There is a famous poem by Kochanowski "Na lipe" (about Linden tree) - "gosciu siadz pod ma lipa a odpoczyn sobie" - "dear visitor -please sit under my linden tree and relax".
8. Sierpień - sierp is "a sickle" used for harvesting (tool to cut the hay, grass or wheat)
9. Wrzesień - from wrzosy - "heather" that beautifully purple in that time of the year
10. Październik - from paździerz - wooden dry part remained from flax or hemp. In the past flax and hemp was used for making cloths. In that time of the year the wind was carrying out "paździerze" - the wooden waste remained after flax and hemp - all over the fields.
11. Listopad - padajace liscie - falling leaves.
12. Grudzień - gruda - hardened ground which is caused by cold weather.
