In Latin, septem means "seven" and septimus means "seventh"; September was in fact the seventh month of the Roman calendar until 153 BC, when the first month changed from Kalendas Martius (1 March) to Kalendas Januarius (1 January).

Titera's Tidbit: Camera
The word camera is Latin for "in the chamber". It was mainly used in law, in particular in the private chambers of a judge. In the 1660's the camera obscura was created, which was a black box with a lens that could project images of external objects. Camera obscura was shortened to camera when modern photography began in 1840 and was extended to television filming devices in 1928.
