ArmenianDayNames
	In the traditional Armenian calendar, the days of the month

	since all of the months are 30 days long with the exception
	of the 13th month, Avelyats, which is either five or six days long.

	Catalan, case- and diacritic-sensitive.

ChineseCelestialStems
	These are an ancient Chinese numeral system used in
	calendrics and astrology.  In modern Chinese,
	Korean, and Japanese, they are still frequently used
	for ordering lists of things. That is, where in
	English one might label things (a), (b), (c),
	... etc., in these languages one might label them
	with the Celestial stems. In a similar vein, they
	are used to label types or variants of the same
	thing, e.g. Hepatitis A and Hepatitis B.

ChineseEarthlyBranches
	These originally designated the twelve phases of the
	orbit of the planet Jupiter. They designate the
	traditional twelve "hours" (two hour periods) of the
	day and are used together with the Celestial Stems
	to designate years in the sexagesimal cycle.

	Earthly Branches that form the Sexagesimal Cycle used

KanaAkasaInterleaved
