August is 8th month, and the reason 8th month isn't October ("octo = eight) is because Some Roman Emmperors decided to make months in their honor... September, October, November, and December were originally the 7, 8, 9, and 10 months (indicated in their roots - sept=7, oct=8, nov=9, dec=10). But because emperors didn't want to be assosciated with winter, they put their months in the summers time -- Julius (July) and Augustus (August).

:) But as a simple answer, August is the Eighth month... What language are you familiar with month names in, by the way?
