Kalends
The Kalends (Latin k/calendæ, -arum), (or calends) correspond to the first days of each month of the Roman calendar. This term can be traced back to the Etruscans, which could explain the appearance of the letter k, a letter less favoured by Latin than the letter c (the few Latin words containing a k are often borrowed from the Etruscans).
