Chula Sakarat or Chulasakarat (Pali: Culāsakaraj; Burmese: ကောဇာသက္ကရာဇ်, pronounced [kɔ́zà θɛʔkəɹɪʔ]; Khmer: ចុល្លសករាជ "Chulasakarach"; Thai: จุลศักราช, RTGS: Chunlasakkarat, pronounced [tɕũn˧la˥sak˩ka˩raːt˨˩], abbrv. จ.ศ. Choso) is a lunisolar calendar derived from the Burmese calendar, whose variants were in use by most mainland Southeast Asian kingdoms down to the late 19th century. The calendar is largely based on an older version of the Hindu calendar though unlike the Indian systems, it employs a version of the Metonic cycle. The calendar therefore has to reconcile the sidereal years of the Hindu calendar with Metonic cycle's tropical years by adding intercalary months and intercalary days on irregular intervals.
