In the Gregorian calendar, which is the calendar system most commonly used today, there are a total of seven months that have 31 days. These months are:
- January
- March
- May
- July
- August
- October
- December
This means that over half of the months in a year have the maximum number of days, which adds to the variety in the calendar structure. The remaining months, February, April, June, September, and November, have either 30 days or in the case of February, 28 or 29 days depending on whether it’s a leap year or not. The presence of these months with 31 days offers a rhythm to our months, often bringing anticipation for holidays or special occasions that typically fall within them!
