00 Hello!
Jimmy teaches us about months and days!
After Caesar’s death, the 5th month was renamed July in his honor. Augustus Caesar, his successor, later had the month following July named after him as August. To avoid being seen as inferior to Julius, Augustus ensured that August also had 31 days, matching the length of July
Will Trump go away if we give him a month?
The Ethiopian calendar has twelve months, all thirty days long, and five or six epagomenal days, which form a thirteenth month. The Ethiopian months begin on the same days as those of the Coptic calendar, but their names are in Geʽez.

It’s up to you how to pronounce the word and under what circumstances, Jim. The three-syllable version is most often used when “beloved” is a noun, as in “You are my beloved.” In secular contexts, the adjective “beloved” is often pronounced as two syllables.
