Here are some points worth mentioning about the Italian calendar: The Italian week begins with Monday. The days of the week, the names of the season, and the names of months are not capitalized in Italian. And, finally, there is an explanation for why settembre (September) is the "seventh" month, ottobre (October) is the "eighth," novembre (November) is the "ninth," and dicembre (December) is the "tenth": A very long time ago, the Roman calendar began in March, so September, October, November, and December were the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth months of the year. For a complete list of months (i mesi), refer to the table below.
