Monat

A month is a unit of time used in calendars that is roughly based on the Moon's natural cycle, which lasts about 29.53 days—this is why the words "month" and "Moon" are related. Months matter because they provide a practical way to organize time into manageable periods, a practice that humans have used since at least the Paleolithic age when people tracked days according to the Moon's phases.
