∙ 9y agoBoth calendars are lunisolar calendars. This means that the months are determined by 29-30 day lunar cycles, but the years are designed to remain relatively consistent with the 365-366 day solar years. This is in contrast to purely solar calendars (like the popular Gregorian calendar), whose months have no correlation with the lunar cycles, or purely lunar calendars (like the Islamic calendar), whose years are 354 days, allowing the months to move around the solar year.
