The Hebrew Old Testament is written in Hebrew.

Why does hunakuh start on a dfferent day every year?

Hanukkah starts on a different day each year because it follows the Hebrew calendar, which is lunar-based, rather than the Gregorian calendar, which is solar-based. Specifically, Hanukkah begins on the 25th of Kislev, the ninth month of the Hebrew calendar, resulting in its date varying between late November and late December in the Gregorian calendar. This shift occurs because the Hebrew calendar is about 11 days shorter than the Gregorian calendar.

What is the difference between the Jewish calendar and the Gregorian calendar?

The Jewish calendar is based on both the moon and the sun. A month can have 29 or 30 days (to start each month with a new moon), and there can be 12 or 13 months to a year. In every 19 years, 12 of the 19 years have 12 months, while seven have 13 months, thus keeping in line with the solar calendar and making every 19 years on a Jewish calendar exactly equal to 19 years on the Gregorian calendar.

The answer is 3-10 December 1274 (without adjusting for the Gregorian change in 1752).
