	Time expressions in the [[Chlouvānem]] language need understanding of the timekeeping system of the Chlouvānem populations. The '''Chlouvānem calendar''' (''chlǣvānumi pārṇahaleṃlāṇa'') is a lunisolar calendar and is one of two timekeeping systems used officially on Calémere, the other one being the standard Western calendar used by the majority of nations. Despite being used only in four countries (''the [[Verse:Chlouvānem Inquisition\|Inquisition]]'', ''Brono'', ''Fathan'', and ''iKalurilut''), it is the timekeeping system for roughly a quarter of the planet's population, the vast majority in the Inquisition.

The current year is 3874 (6424<sub>10</sub>).

	In this article Chlouvānem names will be used, but the languages of the other countries all follow the same system, often with borrowed Chlouvānem numerals for duodecimal numbers.
