Question

Wondering if this month's name is connected to the pascha, in Norwegian called 'påske' - easter? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Xactnoreg ( talkcontribs) 23:30, 18 January 2009 (UTC) reply

Ancient Egyptian calendar and Coptic calendar were different!

Ancient Egyptian calendar and Coptic calendar were different! (but the names of the months were the same!)

Ancient Egyptian month "Pachons" = March 16 - April 14 (but this is Julian calendar) = February 15 - March 15 (Gregorian calendar)

Coptic month Pashons = May 9 - June 7

so they were different! but this makes confusion! Böri ( talk) 13:13, 8 June 2011 (UTC) reply

Nope. Exactly same month. Used to migrate, now mostly doesn't. —  LlywelynII 10:07, 5 February 2017 (UTC) reply

Need for clarifiction of month name

The Name section says "name of the month of Pashons comes from Khonsu".

How? Nothing in this article or the Khonsu article explains how that could be; they don't seem to sound anything similar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drbobpgh ( talkcontribs) 14:55, 24 May 2017 (UTC) reply
