settembre

Settembre is Italian for September, from Latin September; in an act it reads addì otto del mese di settembre, on September 8.

Settembre is September, from Latin September, the seventh month of the old Roman year, which is why its name contains sette, seven. In acts it follows the day and del mese di: addì otto del mese di settembre, on the eighth of September. The abbreviation is set.

Because the name holds a number, do not mix the month with the number words around it: sette is 7, settanta 70, and settembre the month. Settimana means week.
