Etimologia

Inherited from Old Polish czyrwiec. By surface analysis, czerw + -iec. The month was thus named either because this was the time of year bugs would appear or because one would go and acquire red dye made from bugs. Diplaced Old Polish czyrwień, possibly under influence of marzec and later lipiec.
