Breakdown of Τον Ιανουάριο και τον Φεβρουάριο φοράμε συχνά μπότες, γιατί κάνει πολύ κρύο και βρέχει.

Why do Ιανουάριο and Φεβρουάριο have τον before them?

Because Greek often uses the accusative to mean during a month or time period.

So:

The article τον is the masculine accusative singular form of ο.

This is very common with months:

In English we use a preposition like in, but in Greek the accusative article + month often does that job.

Why is τον repeated before both months instead of just appearing once?

In Greek, it is very normal to repeat the article before each noun in a list:

This sounds natural and standard. Greek often repeats the article more than English does.

You may see article repetition in many similar phrases:

So this is not unusual at all.
