The thirtieth of February?
In the Appendix B of LotR where The Tale of Years are and the Great Years start, under February it says
Quote:
This has gotten me confused, is this "February" that is stated in Appendix B the 'Shire February' or 'our' February, because if it is our February, then it should have only twenty eight days and twenty nine if it was a leap year, how then does February have thirty days? Is this just a typographical error that Tolkien and his publishers made, or was this 'error' supposed to be there and I am missing something?
