Did you know?
- The name יולי entered the Hebrew language via the German 'Juli' rather than directly from Latin.
- While יולי is used for dates, the Hebrew calendar's corresponding month תַּמּוּז is traditionally associated with the destructive fire and the 'fasts' of the summer.
- If you were reading a Hebrew historical text, you would almost never see the word יולי, as it is a modern invention for the Gregorian system.
