Etymology

[edit]

    From Middle English Novembre, from Old French novembre, from Latin November (“ninth month”), from Latin novem, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁néwn̥ (“nine”); + Latin -ber, from -bris, an adjectival suffix. November was the ninth month in the Roman calendar.

    Displaced native Old English blōtmōnaþ (literally “sacrifice month”), so called because the Anglo-Saxons, when they were pagans, would sacrifice in this month before the winter set in.

          Etymology

          [edit]

            Uncertain, perhaps by haplology of earlier *nove(m)-mēmbris (“of or pertaining to the ninth month”), from *nove(m)-mēnzris, from novem (“nine”) + *mēnzris, from *mēnzlis, from *mēns (“month”) +‎ *-lis; see novem, and mēnsis. In the Roman calendar, the year began with Mārtius (“March”), and November was the ninth month of the year.

            1. of November

            Usage notes

            [edit]

            In Classical Latin, month names were regularly used as adjectives, generally modifying a case-form of mēnsis m sg (“month”) or of one of the nouns used in the Roman calendar to refer to specific days of the month from which other days were counted: kalendae f pl (“calends”), nōnae f pl (“nones”), īdūs f pl (“ides”). However, the masculine noun mēnsis could be omitted by ellipsis, so the masculine singular forms of month names eventually came to be used as proper nouns.[1]

            The accusative plural adjective forms Aprīlīs, Septembrīs, Octōbrīs, Novembrīs, Decembrīs[2] are ambiguous in writing, being spelled identically to the genitive singular forms of the nouns; nevertheless, the use of ablative singular forms in -ī and comparison with the usage of other month names as adjectives supports the interpretation of -is as an accusative plural adjective ending in Classical Latin phrases such as "kalendas Septembris".[3]

            Declension

            [edit]

            Third-declension three-termination adjective.

            • In medieval and New Latin, the ablative singular can also be found as Novembre.
