Well, I'll put up the provisional forms in Roumán

Days:
S ddeis Soes ([zdes 'soe)s]) - S is definite article
S ddeis Lunei ([zdes 'lune])
S ddeis Mautteis ([zdes 'mautes])
S ddeis Meiccú ([zdes me'ku])
S ddeis Youbeis ([zdeS 'Zoves])
S ddeis Bendleis ([zdes 'vEnK\es] - [K\] = voiced lateral fricative)
S ddeis Boucén ([zdes vo'tsEn] - Saturn was replaced by Vulcan in the
final day's name

Meiccú and Boucén are sometimes stressed on the first syllable, by
analogy with the other days.

Deis is inflected, the second part is not, being a genetive

Informally, _ddeis_ is often dropped, and the names are uninflected, the
article taking number and case.

Months:

Yaneyous ([Za'nEZos]
Fedleyous ([fE'K\EZos]
Meçous (['mEtsos])
Flís ([flis])
Meyous (['mEZos])
Yunious (['Zunjos])
Yuious (['Zujos])
Ougouçous ([o'Gotsos])
Tteibeyous ([te'vEZos]) < Tiberius, the emperor at the time the Roumén
     reached Atlantis
Tloudeos (['KoDeo)s]) - [K] = voiceless lateral fricative < Claudius,
     the first Tleifettous (Praefectus) of Atlantis
Nobembei ([nO'vEmbe]), erg. Nobendle ([nO'vEndK\E])
Gembei ([dzEmbe]) < Decembei ([dEtsEmbe]), erg. Gendle
