"Aprilo, junio, septembro kaj novembro havas po tridek tagoj."

[Joffysloffy]

“Aprilo, junio, septembro kaj novembro havas po tridek tagoj.” You don't use the accusative case after ‘po’.

[noureddin95]

Thanks, Edited.

I just copied the sentence and added "po", forgetting that it is a preposition. :)

[Joffysloffy]

Aha, I see. Fair enough :).

[TheRealFlenuan]

I was about to say the same thing! :)

[danielqsc]

But is "po" mandatory in this sentence, or just optional to make it clearer?

[BarrelOfBacon]

Not an Esperanto expert here, but some personal experience may be of use...

I would think the latter. This construct looks Slavic to me, and, being a native Russian speaker, I've seen both. It's pretty much the difference between "X and Y have Z days" and "X and Y each have Z days." Only used with quantities, though.

I'm sure I could dive into the Esperanto grammar for a few hours and fish out chapter and verse, but this is the way it makes sense to me :)

Please feel free to slap me around a bit with a large trout if the above is incorrect.

Tridek tagojn havas septembro...

[LuisRodrigoRuiz]

Tridek tagoj en Septembro,

en April', Juni', Novembro;

Dudek ok en Februaro

(Dudek naŭ ĉe superjaro):

Restas sep monatoj, kiuj

Havas tridek unu ĉiuj.

[Joffysloffy]

I love that little rhyme! Nice!

[camcamcam753]

It's nice and chewy!

[MarianoCalixte]

Would "enhavas" work here?

[TheRealFlenuan]

It would probably work better. :)

I admit I had to use my knuckles on that.
