There are 360 days in the year, split up into twelve months of thirty days each with five holidays that fall between some months. The seasons run like they do for the northern hemisphere; Hammer is like January and Flamerule is like July. Each week consists of ten days, called a tenday.
A tenday is also, though less commonly, called a ride, and consists of ten days. The days do not have names, but are instead referred to by number: first-day, second-day, and so on. Most people count using their thumbs as first-day; halflings, however, are famous for using their pinkies to count first-day, and thus the phrase "counting like a halfling" has come to mean someone is being different just to be difficult.

- Winter Solstice: Nightal 20
- Spring Equinox: Ches 19
- Summer Solstice: Kythorn 20
