Is May special?... September?
I saw a post asking about the days of the week and I referred them to the dictionary, like I always do... Thing is, I usually check to make sure the person will be able to find the word they are looking for.... Don't ask me why I would think that the dictionary would not include the months of the year- I probably wasn't thinking at all. So, anyways, I looked up the months of the year and all of them say the translation for the month followed by: "see also May". I was just wondering if there is some particular obsession with May or a super importance of the month. Any one have any ideas?
As Gfreed pointed out, if you look up the months in Spanish, you get "ver también septiembre" (see also september).

Well, May is the birth month for 8 or 9 per-cent of us, so, yes, it is very special!
Bueno, mayo es el mes en que ocho o nueve por ciento de nosostros nacimos. Por eso, sí, ¡es muy especial!
Dictionary compiler was born in May, like me?
...or because "May" is the shortest month name.
Así, naturalmente, mayo es el mejor mes porque es el mes en que nació mi hijo!
If you look up May, it says see also September. I think it's a clue for conspiracy theorists.
mayo
masculine noun
- May ; ver también septiembre
ehh....el cinco de mayo es muy bien ![]()

If this is this is the reason, it should say "see also November" ![]()
Si esto es la razón, debe decir "ver también noviembre" ![]()
