names of the months

It is quite difficult for a beginner to memorize the names of the dates in Japanese. After practicing them with a lot of hard work, we began the names of the months. The student was very ready to learn them. But....different to the dates, the months are very easy. You just put "-gatsu" after the number of the month, like 1-gatsu, 2-gatsu, 3-gatsu.... It seemed that he couldn't believe that at first. He asked and made it sure again and again if they could be so simple. Yes, Japanese is often very simple.
