From a standpoint of etymology. Lunar comes from French lunarire, meaning of the moon. Month comes from an old word for moon. So both words derive from the same word in terms of meaning, but through different languages. It’s not super unusual, but it is still interesting :sanapray:

this is the first (and second) I've heard of chai tea being redundant lol
Click to expand...
Chai (and similar words like cha) are extremely common ways to say tea in different languages. The first time I heard chai tea I was confused because in Russian tea is chai, so I was confused why someone would put that before another word for tea :lisalaugh: I don’t think the phrase comes from Russian, directly or indirectly, but it still sounded redundant

KPOPSOURCE
Community-driven since 2018
Our Story
KpopSource began as a small blog called ksource, created by a dedicated K-Pop fan known as @Sourcekeeper. Frustrated by the decline of welcoming, discussion-driven communities, she set out to build something different — a space where fans could talk, connect, and stay for the long term.

Over time, that simple idea grew into the community you see today. While platforms and trends have changed, the goal has remained the same: to give K-Pop fans a place that feels familiar, human, and worth returning to.
