"period" isn't really correct

Hi,
Period doesn't have the same meaning in English and in French. Here is my best example: http://www.tampax.co.uk/en-GB/periodCalendar/periodCalendar.aspx.
It's ok-ish but we don't use this term for that purpose in English.

Period seems okay to me. It's a period of time. The word has two meanings in English depending on the context, but this project certainly (and obviously) uses it in the correct context and meaning.
As an English speaker, I agree that 'period' is being used appropriately in this context.
Thanks, i close the issue.
Alright, sorry about that.
