What Month is November?
November is the eleventh month of the year
November, abbreviated as Nov, is the 11th month of the Gregorian calendar, coming after October and before December.
November gets its name from the Latin word novem, meaning "nine." In the original Roman calendar, which began in March, November was the ninth month of the year.
Even after January and February were added to the beginning of the calendar shifting November to the eleventh month, its name remained the same. This historical numbering explains why November's name reflects nine rather than its current position in the modern calendar.
