    It's called Chinese Calendar for the same reason people call the gregorian calendar 西曆(western calendar). 農曆 is a neologism from after the gregorian calendar was adopted. Are you going to insist we do a literal translation of 漢語 instead of just saying Chinese? From now on I'm going to call the Latin Alphabet "west eurasian phoneme combination script".
