What is Calendar date?
A '''Calendar date''' is a way to refer to a certain [[day]] in a [[calendar]]. With the calendar date and the calendar, the exact day can be identified. With a different calendar, the same calendar date may refer to a different day. This can be seen easiest when comparing the [[Julian calendar]] with the [[Gregorian calendar]]. Calendar dates are important to refer to events (most [[holiday]]s are fixed with reference to a particular event or calendar date.) One example may be [[Easter]]. In the [[Middle Ages]], it has been fixed that Easter is to be the first Sunday that is (on or after) the 14th day after the [[spring]] [[equinox]]. Most calendar systems have a date format that has three parts, the [[day]] of a certain month, the [[month]] and the [[year]]. Sometimes the [[week]] is added. ==Other websites== *[http://www.onthisdayinhistory.net On This Day In History] {{stub}} [[Category:Calendars]]
