[edit] Etymology
By syncope from earlier *decumo-mēmbris, analogically to septem : september, from earlier *decumo-mēnsris "of the tenth month", from the ordinal stem decem (“‘ten’”) + *mēnsris < mens- (“‘month’”) + -ris. In the Roman calendar, the year began with mārtius (“‘March’”), and december was the tenth month of the year.
