Metric Calendar (Year View)
The metric year is divided into 10 months of 36-37 days each. Each month follows a consistent rhythm of work and rest days.
Month Names
Each metric month represents a phase of the year:
What is Metric Time?
Decimal-Based
Metric Time divides the day into 10 metric hours, each containing 100 metric minutes. This decimal structure makes mental math and conversions intuitive and straightforward.
Digital-Friendly
The decimal system aligns perfectly with digital systems and automation. No more irregular month lengths or complex leap year calculations.
Global Coordination
A unified timekeeping system eliminates confusion across cultures and industries, making international coordination seamless and efficient.
The Metric Time Structure
1 Day
= 10 mHours
= 1,000 mMinutes
= 100,000 mSeconds
1 mHour
= 100 mMinutes
= 2 hours 24 minutes
= 8,640 traditional seconds
1 mMinute
= 100 mSeconds
= 1 minute 26.4 seconds
= 86.4 traditional seconds
1 mSecond
= 0.864 traditional seconds
= 864 milliseconds

Metric Calendar Structure
The Metric Calendar reorganizes the year into 10 months of equal length, with a consistent work-rest rhythm in each month.
The mMonth Rhythm
Each metric month follows this pattern:
- 6-day mWeeks: 2 rest days + 4 work days
- 6 mWeeks per month: Creates 36-day months
- Bonus rest days: 37-day months include an extra rest day
- Leap years: Handled with one intercalary day
Conversion Examples
Athletic Timing
Usain Bolt's 100m world record:
9.58 seconds = 11.08 mSeconds
Daily Events
Lunch at noon:
12:00 PM = 5.00 mHours
Work Day
8-hour work day:
8 hours = 3.33 mHours
