ay-gün takvimi
Also known as lunar calendar with corrections to match it to the length of the solar year
calendar based on the solar time of the tropical year with months related to the regular cycle of the Moon's phases
AI overview
A lunisolar calendar combines the Sun's yearly cycle with the Moon's monthly phases, so it tracks both solar seasons and lunar months at the same time. This matters because it allows calendars to stay aligned with seasonal changes in nature while also following the Moon's visible cycle, which many cultures find important for religious observances and daily life.
