Common year
A
Common year
is a
calendar year
with exactly 365
days
, in contrast to the longer
leap year
. More generally, a common year is one without
intercalation
. The
Gregorian calendar
(like the earlier
Julian calendar
) employs both common years and leap years to adjust for differing astronomical measurements of the
year
:
sidereal
and
tropical
.
