What is August? How to use in English

The origin of the word "August" is Latin-based. In Latin, the month of August was known as "Augustus," which means "great" or "venerable." This is because the month was named after Augustus Caesar, who was the Roman emperor from 27 BC to 14 AD. Augustus was known for his many reforms and accomplishments, and the month that was previously known as "Sextilis" (the sixth month of the Roman calendar) was renamed in his honor. The Latin form "Augustus" is derived from the verb "augere," which means "to increase" or "to make great." Augustus was seen as a great leader who had brought peace and prosperity to Rome, so the month was given his name to reflect his stature. The name "August" has been adopted into many languages, including English, and is still used today to refer to the month of August.
