Well, Rokbeigalmki doesn't have any direct connection to Earth either,
although the way i've been using its calendar is earth-centered,
calculating New Moons and such with an astronomy program.
Since i have no idea at the moment of the time scale of the actual
Rokbeigalmki years, i've been using the term _nga'Ao''Le''Ro_ (or without
the _nga'_ for short), "since the Creation of the Rokbeigalmki Language"
(nga'aoledh-a tza'lesna-a rokbeigalmki-a).  The Year Zero ended at the
Southern Hemisphere Winter Solstice of 1997 (i started real conlanging
the beginning of June), so right now it's the Year 3.
