==== Usage notes ====
* Radestrians can disagree on whether the calendar contains 12 or 13 months: some refer to '''dzestasans''' as the ‘0<sup>th</sup>’ month. This stems from the fact that in Radestrian, the word {{eng|hjárs}} {{hint|month}} is seldom used to include '''dzestasans'''; if someone were to say '''ha hjára''' {{hint|in a month}} in {{wl-rad|dzevans}}, the date would be understood as the corresponding time in {{wl-rad|mvaþers}}.

** Moreover, the month has special words for the first and fourth (and fifth on {{eng|leap year}}s) days of the week, and the date read slightly differently.
** In the modern era, it is codified as the 13<sup>th</sup> month.
