Ram·a·dan
noun/ˈræmədæn/
/ˈrɑːmədɑːn/
[uncountable, countable]- the ninth month of the Muslim year, when Muslims do not eat or drink between dawn and sunset
穆斯林年的九月，穆斯林在黎明和日落之间不吃不喝 Word Originfrom Arabic ramaḍān, from ramaḍa ‘be hot’. The lunar reckoning of the Muslim calendar brings the fast eleven days earlier each year, eventually causing Ramadan to occur in any season; originally it was supposed to be in one of the hot months.
