• n. 七月

來自古法語Jule,來自拉丁語Iulius,古羅馬歷法的五月，來自古羅馬共和國獨裁官Julius Caesar,為表達對他的尊敬，以他的名字命名五月并代替原先的Quintilis,五月，詞源同five.后歷法改革加上January和February后，該月順延用于指七月。比較September,詞源同seven.

July

July: [13] July was the month in which Julius Caesar was born. Originally in ancient Rome it was called Quintilis, literally ‘fifth month’ (the Roman year began in March), but after the death and deification of Caesar its name was changed in his honour. Latin Jūlius passed into English via Anglo-Norman julie, and until the 18th century the word was usually pronounced to rhyme with truly (as the related woman’s name Julie still is).

July

c.1050, Iulius, from Anglo-French julie, Old French Jule, from Latin Iulius "fifth month of the Roman calendar" (which began its year in March), renamed after his death and deification in honor of Gaius Julius Caesar, who was born in this month, which formerly in republican Rome was named Quintilis "fifth." Accented on first syllable in English until 18c. Replaced Old English liea se ?fterra "later mildness," from liee "mild."
