Oh dear, now I see why  some of the dates are getting thrown off. I don't know if this is common in other languages, but when one says "fifth day after the new moon" it means it's added onto the new moon's date. So if the 1st was new moon, saying it's the fifth day after would make it the 6th. However, in this translation, a sentence clearly reads that the fifth day after the new moon is the 5th of the month. Is it common in the Polish language to do this way of counting?
