Menology (noun)
men-ol-o-jee
a record or account arranged in the order of a calendar.
menology “a record or account arranged in the order of a calendar” comes from Late Greek mēnológion, from Ancient Greek mḗn “month” and -lógion, a derivative of lógos “a word, saying, speech.” The word mḗn is a distant relative of Latin mensis and English month, and all three come from the same root as English moon (and Monday) and menstrual “monthly.” Menology was first recorded in English circa 1605.
