Instead, they employ their versions of the <a href="/wiki/Metonic_cycle" title="Metonic cycle">Metonic cycle</a>. However, since the Metonic cycle is not very accurate for sidereal years, the Southeast Asian calendar is slowly drifting out of sync with the sidereal, approximately one day every 100 years.

One of its primary objectives is to synchronize the lunar part with the solar part. The lunar months, normally twelve of them, consist alternately of 29 days and 30 days, such that a normal lunar year will contain 354 days, as opposed to the solar year of ~365.25 days. Therefore, some form of addition to the lunar year (of intercalation) is necessary. The overall basis for it is provided by cycles of 57 years. Eleven extra days are inserted in every 57 years, and seven extra months of 30 days are inserted in every 19 years (21 months in 57 years). This provides 20819 complete days to both calendars.<sup id="cite_ref-jce-1995-15_12-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-jce-1995-15-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This 57-year cycle would provide a mean year of about 365.2456 days and a mean month of about 29.530496 days, if not corrected. </p><p>As such, the calendar adds an <a href="/wiki/Intercalary_month" class="mw-redirect" title="Intercalary month">intercalary month</a> in <a href="/wiki/Leap_year" title="Leap year">leap years</a> and sometimes also an <a href="/wiki/Leap_day" class="mw-redirect" title="Leap day">intercalary day</a> in great leap years. The intercalary month not only corrects the length of the year but also corrects the accumulating error of the month to extent of half a day. The average length of the month is further corrected by adding a day to Nayon at irregular intervals—a little more than seven times in two cycles (39 years). The intercalary day is never inserted except in a year which has an intercalary month.<sup id="cite_ref-ambi-8-9_7-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ambi-8-9-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The Hindu calendar inserts an intercalary month at any time of year as soon as the accumulated fractions amount to one month.

However, the Metonic cycle, which employs tropical years, is incompatible with sidereal based Hindu calendars, and thus was not (and still is not) used in Hindu calendars. Chatterjee (1998: 151) suggests that the Metonic system was introduced to Burma by Europeans. Ohashi (2001: 398–399) rejects Chatterjee's hypothesis saying that "no other trace of European influence is found in South-East Asian astronomy." Instead, Ohashi (2001: 401–403) suggests that China may have been the source of the Metonic cycle.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-19"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-19">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">(Irwin 1909: 26–27): In the mid-19th century, the Burmese <a href="/wiki/Konbaung_Dynasty" class="mw-redirect" title="Konbaung Dynasty">Konbaung Dynasty</a> tried to address the issue by introducing a new calculation methodology.
