Ides may refer to:
Here's your wikkie
* A day in the Roman calendar, that marked the approximate middle of the month, i.e., the fifteenth day in the months of March, May, July, and October, and the thirteenth day in the other eight months. The word ides comes from Latin, meaning "half division" (of a month).
o Specifically, this may refer to the Ides of March, the date of Julius Caesar's assassination

Ides means middle. So the ides of March, would be the middle of march, or March 15th.

The expression is "the Ides of March" and it simply means the 15th of March. It comes from Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar" but the expression was still in use when he wrote the play.

It is actually the "Ides of March" or the 15th of March. In Roman times the Ides was the middle (15th) of each month.
The Ides of March is when Julius Caesar was murdered by his constituents.

It's the "Ides of March," and I believe it was the 15th. So we missed it.
