12 October - Holy Translator's Day or Targmanchats in Armenia
The Feast of the Holy Translators is dedicated to a group of literary figures, and saints of the Armenian Apostolic Church, who founded the Armenian alphabet, translated the Bible, and started a movement of writing and translating important works into Armenian language.
The Holy Translators are: Mesrop Mashtots, Gregory of Narek, Movses Khorenatsi, Yeghishe, David the Invincible, Nerses IV the Gracious.
The translation of the Bible was finished by the Holy Translators in 425. The first words written in Armenian were the opening line of the Book of Proverbs. The first Armenian translation of the Bible is among the world's oldest, has survived and is still used in the liturgy of the Armenian Church.
