<p>[QUOTE="Milesofwho, post: 3653639, member: 91469"]Yes to all. The calendar is lunar, so an AH year is about 3% shorter than our year. The formula for AH to AD is as follows: take 3% of the AH year, subtract the result (as a whole number) from the date, and add 622 to get the AD date. So, whatever year you get by adding the number should be close to it by a year or so whether you incorporate it into the formula for the AH date from the start or add it at the end when you have the AD year.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
