Yup it is the day that comes once every 4 years. In Ethiopia, where I am originally from, the extra day is added at the end of the year. Ethiopia uses the ancient Julian calendar, broken up in to 12 months of 30 days and a 13 months with 5 or 6 days. Most of the world uses the Gregorian calendar, like here in the US of A.
