Can Split function be used on a String of Array ?

Hi
I would like to use split on a string of Array . for example , i have arrMonth[] array with strings , 'Jan','Feb','Mar' ... 'Dec'.
I wish to split arrMonth[] into 2 sub arrays by means of index position .. when i try using Splice/slice method in salesforce its throwing an error stating
"Method does not exist or incorrect signature: [LIST<String>].splice(Integer, Integer)"


Looking for Split function on string of array or any other alternative way to achieve this w/o manual declaration of 2 sub arrays
Any pointers would be great

thanks in advance
Ajay
