Year
Heb. shanah, meaning "repetition" or "revolution" (Gen. 1:14;
5:3). Among the ancient Egyptians the year consisted of twelve
months of thirty days each, with five days added to make it a
complete revolution of the earth round the sun. The Jews
reckoned the year in two ways, (1) according to a sacred
calendar, in which the year began about the time of the vernal
equinox, with the month Abib; and (2) according to a civil
calendar, in which the year began about the time of the autumnal
equinox, with the month Nisan. The month Tisri is now the
beginning of the Jewish year.

YEAR. The period in which the revolution of the earth round the sun, and the
accompanying changes in the order of nature, are completed.
2. The civil year differs from the astronomical, the latter being
composed of 365 days, 5 hours, 48 seconds and a fraction, while the former
consists, sometimes of three hundred and sixty-five days, and at others, in
leap years, of three hundred and sixty-six days.
3. The year is divided into half-year which consists, according to Co.
Litt. 135 b, of 182 days; and quarter of a year, which consists of 91 days,
Ibid. and 2 Roll. Ab. 521, 1. 40. It is further divided into twelve months.
4. The civil year commences immediately after twelve o'clock at night
of the thirty-first day of December, that is the first moment of the first
day of January, and ends at midnight of the thirty-first day of December,
twelve mouths thereafter. Vide Com. Dig. Ann.; 2 Bl. Com. by Chitty, 140,
n.; Chitt. Pr. Index tit. Time alteration of the calendar (q.v.) from old to
new style in England, (see Bissextile,) and the colonies of that country in
America, the year in chronological reckoning was supposed to commence with
the first day of January, although the legal year did not commence until
March 25th, the intermediate time being doubly indicated: thus February 15,
1724, and so on. This mode of reckoning was altered by the statute 24 Geo.
II. cap. 23, which gave rise to an act of assembly of Pennsylvania, passed
March 11, 1752; 1 Sm. Laws, 217, conforming thereto, and also to the repeal
of the act of 1710.
5. In New York it is enacted that whenever the term "year" or "years"
is or shall be used in any statute, deed, verbal or written contract, or any
public or private instrument whatever, the year intended shall be taken to
consist of three hundred and sixty-five days; half a year of a hundred and
eighty-two days; and a quarter of a year of ninety-two days; and the day of
a leap year, and the day immediately preceding, if they shall occur in any
period so to be computed, shall be reckoned together as one day. Rev. Stat.
part 1, c. 19, t. 1, Sec. 3.

  • Which is correct — a year or an year? [duplicate]
    For the word 'year' to be preceded by 'an' it must sound like it's beginning with a vowel The reason why it is a tad tricky is because of the difference in the way people pronounce it Some people pronounce the word 'year' as 'ear' with 'y' silent, thereby wanting 'an' to precede and feeling discomfort with 'a' e g
  • What differences are there between annually, yearly, and every year?
    Longman says yearly means ‘happening or appearing every year or once a year’ Oxford says yearly means ‘Happening or produced once a year or every year’ Your Dengue outbreaks seem very confusing In my country your ‘rainy season’ does happen once a year; that's why it's called 'the rainy season'
  • What is the difference between in this year and this year?
    Both sentences have the same meaning and are both fine grammatically, but by convention in is not usually used to refer to the current year, and will sound strange to native speakers You should use sentence 2 In is usually used for a year in the past or the future, followed by a date, such as: The Battle of Hastings took place in the year 1066
  • If annual means one year, is there any word for two,three, four. . year
    From WordWeb: Annual: Occurring or payable every year What is the corresponding single word for occurring every two year, three year, four year etc

  • Difference between across the year and throughout the year?
    For USA standard English speech and writing, "across the year" is unusual and uncommon, although it is understandable as a phrase referring to a one-year time period (a calendar year or the previous 12 months) These phrases are much more common: I have accomplished a lot over the course of the year I have accomplished a lot during the year
  • Is there a proper term to describe ⅓ of a year (4 months)?
    There is a difference between a duration period of three months as in "trimester" and an event occurring every 3 months as in "quarterly" In the same vein you would have a quadrimester or tri-annually(which means three times a year; not every 3 months) both being correct in the right context
  • Year Division by Quarters: any terms to express halves of years or . . .
    It is of course possible to find special terms, but they are not in frequent use What is usually done is to specify a fraction of a year or a number of days, weeks, or months One might say "a third of a year" or "four months " Fractions using sixths or twelfths are rare Most would say "seven months" rather than "seven twelfths of a year "
  • Which is it: 1½ years old or 1½ year old? [duplicate]
    It would come much more naturally to a native speaker to say not "That man is a 50-year-old" [note also the hyphenation here] but "That is a 50-year-old man"; similarly, not "That kid is a one-and-a-half-year-old today" [a construction I have never heard anyone use when referring to half years as part of someone's age], but "That is a one-and-a-half-year-old kid" (omitting the 'today'), or
