Hi Galina
The translation of תשע״ה ירח האיתנים is, as you say, the month of “Tishrei” 2014 in the Gregorian calendar. See website https://www.hebcal.com/converter/?hd=1 <https://www.hebcal.com/converter/?hd=1&hm=Tishrei&hy=5775&h2g=1> &hm=Tishrei&hy=5775&h2g=1 which places the month of Tishrei 5775 across September and October 2014 dependent on the day of the month. I trust this helps.

Thank you all, my friends! Apparently my question was not clear enough, sorry. >From my original message: “Would you suggest how to read designation: תפילה תשע"ה “ - I expected that someone would know how to read that, But … some told me Tefilah- means Prayer – thanks, it’s given, some told me 775 is 2014 or 2015-thanks, it’s given, some told me that Hebrew and secular Calendar overlap- thanks, it’s given, as well, no one, so far, answered major question- How to read that: is it “Prayer 2014/2015” ? - doesn’t seem right to me at all … And I have that question, because publisher has a particular pattern/style: Volume “Daled” has ירח האיתנים תשע"ה , which is Tishrei (see Even-Shoshan), thus, 2014, Sept. My guess is that this one on my hand, volume “ ה”, ought to be 2015(?) If I have just a year, I do not have a question, but since the publisher designated it with something else, I need to decipher, so to speak that: unless, it might, just might, means-any time of the year, except those four months (?), which do have their Biblical names.. – that’s when your expertise needed. If any of you have a good idea after I gave you more information, please share. As for now, I shall wait till (btw, “Yehalek shalal”) next volume comes–it might clarify the matter Wish you all the best! Galina I haven’t found any month which corresponds to this, and yes, I looked at the Bible Calendar. I need to know if it clarifies a year - 2015 or 2014. – I expected that someone know what it related to, I for one, think, it might, just might be any time of the year except those for month that do have Biblical names “Dear …, I need to be more precise because my “Daled” volume has “ ירח האיתנים תשע"ה “ which is Tishrei, thus, 2014, Sept.; and my guess is that this one on my hand, ה, ought to be 2015(?) If I have just a year, I do not have a question, but since the publisher designated it with something else, I need to decipher, so to speak that.” Best!
