The 13th month is a period of five days (in common years) or six days (in leap years) that is used to bring the total number of days to match the solar year as closely as possible. Because it is only five (or six) days long, it is also referred to as a week in some countries. As it does not match any particular month of the Gregorian calendar, it is referred to as '''''Feriae''''' in English. The 13th month is inserted at the end of the year, after the 12th month. Traditionally, it is a period of celebration before the New Year begins. Most countries have various kinds of festivities occurring in this period of time. | The 13th month is a period of five days (in common years) or six days (in leap years) that is used to bring the total number of days to match the solar year as closely as possible.
