May 2044 Calendar: Monthly Calendar

Monthly Calendar for May 2044

A calendar is a system of organizing dates, days, and times – to keep a record of significant fests and other important events. Various calendars are used around the world and have been prevalent for a long time. The most common way of timekeeping has been the Gregorian calendar with the seven days and twelve months. The days are Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday; while the months: January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, and December. Yet, different areas still prefer depending on traditional tier calendars for the calculation of their significant festivals and such. In the same vein, although the Gregorian Calendar is used for all administration tasks in India. However, for the computation of dates of our major festivals and fasts, the Panchang is taken into account.

The Hindu Panchang

Even though the Hindu Panchang is one of the more renowned calendars of India, however, numerous others are given priority in different states. For example:

• The Shalivahana Shaka, commonly called Shaka Samvat is majorly used in South India
• Vikram Samvat (Bikrami) is prevalent in Northern and Central regions of India
• Tamil calendar is used in Tamil Nadu
• Bengali calendar is widespread in the Bengal region
• The Malayalam calendar for Kerala, a schedule based on the solar cycle unlike all above, which emphasize the lunar cycle.

The Indian calendar is more complicated than the Gregorian one. While the latter adds days to a month every four years, to make up for the mismatch between the 354 lunar and 365 solar days; the former follows a more intricate pattern. In order to maintain the integrity of the lunar month, the Indian calendar 2044 includes an entire month (Adhik Mas) every few years through elaborate calculations.
