The Chinese year is luni-solar, comprising twelve lunar months, to which intercalary month is added, when requisite to préserve correspondence with the solar year. When, during a lunar month, the sun does not enter any sign of the Zodiac, that month is iuter- calary, and the year contains thirteen months, as is the case with the present year; the fifth month having an intercalation.
