Date::Manip::Lang - date manipulation routines (language initialization) DESCRIPTION
This module is a series of routines, one per language, used to initialize the support for different languages in Date::Manip ADDING A LANGUAGE
Adding a language is easily done. If you want to add a language, refer to the list of words and phrases given below. Translate them into the desired language and email them to me. Note that Date::Manip does support international character sets, so if there are non-ASCII characters in the words, it's not a problem. Be sure to include an ASCII representation as well that can be used in cases where non-ASCII characters might cause problems. In many cases, alternate spellings are allowed, and there may be multiple words or phrases which fit, so please include all of them (with ASCII representations for any that include non-ASCII characters). Please translate ALL of the following. In some cases, a phrase is given in parentheses. It is not necessary to translate the phrase. They're there to show the word in the correct context. month names (January February ...) abbreviations (Jan Feb ...) day name (Monday Tuesday ... Sunday) abbreviation (Mon Tue ... Sun) short abbrev. (M T ... S) number suffix (1st 2nd ... 31st) spelled out (first second ... thirty-first now today tomorrow yesterday last (last day of the month) each (each Tuesday of the month) of (first day of the week) at (at 3:00) on (on Tuesday) next (next Tuesday) last (last Tuesday) exactly (in exactly 3 hours) approximately (in approximately 3 hours) business (in 4 business days) Some times of the day are named. At the very least, there is probably noon and midnight. Provide all named times, and the time of day. noon 12:00:00 midnight 00:00:00 The delta field names can be written or abbreviated in many differet ways. Provide all names and abbreviations for the seven fields. For example: years/year/yrs/yr/y months/month/mon weeks/week/wk/wks/w days/day/d hours/hour/hr/hrs minutes/minute/min/mn seconds/second/sec/s What words/phrases can be used to say that a time is in the future? E.g. IN 3 hours 3 hours LATER 3 hours IN THE FUTURE In the past? 3 hours AGO 3 hours PAST Does the language have an equivalent of the English AM/PM? If so, what are all possible values of each? Other than a comma or period, are there any common integer/decimal separators? For example: 1.25 can be expressed as 1.25 or 1,25 commonly. Are there any other ways? When expressing time the hours/minutes and minutes/seconds are typically separated by colons. Are there any other separators? If so, what combinations of the separators are used in real life? For example: 05h30:00. NOTE: there must be the same number of sephm and sepms values and the first sephm corresponds to the first sepms, etc. AUTHOR

Date::Manip::Lang::danish - Danish language support. SYNOPSIS
This module contains a list of words and expressions supporting the language. It is not intended to be used directly (other Date::Manip modules will load it as needed). LANGUAGE EXPRESSIONS
The following is a list of all language words and expressions used to write times and/or dates. All strings are case insensitive. Month names and abbreviations When writing out the name of the month, several different variations may exist including full names and abbreviations. The following month names may be used: Januar Februar Marts April Maj Juni Juli August September Oktober November December The following abbreviations may be used: Jan Feb Mar Apr Maj Jun Jul Aug Sep Okt Nov Dec Day names and abbreviations When writing out the name of the day, several different variations may exist including full names and abbreviations. The following day names may be used: Mandag Tirsdag Onsdag Torsdag Fredag Lordag Lordag Sondag Sondag The following abbreviations may be used: Man Tir Ons Tor Fre Lor Lor Son Son The following short (1-2 characters) abbreviations may be used: M Ti O To F L S Delta field names These are the names (and abbreviations) for the fields in a delta. There are 7 fields: years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, seconds. The names and abbreviations for these fields are: ar aar maneder maaneder man maned maan maaned uger u uge dage d dag timer t tim time minutter m min minut sekunder s sek sekund Morning/afternoon times This is a list of expressions use to designate morning or afternoon time when a time is entered as a 12-hour time rather than a 24-hour time. For example, in English, the time "17:00" could be specified as "5:00 PM". Morning and afternoon time may be designated by the following sets of words: FM f.m. EM e.m. Each or every There are a list of words that specify every occurence of something. These are used in the following phrases: EACH Monday EVERY Monday EVERY month The following words may be used: hver Next/Previous/Last occurence There are a list of words that may be used to specify the next, previous, or last occurence of something. These words could be used in the following phrases: NEXT week LAST tuesday PREVIOUS tuesday LAST day of the month The following words may be used: Next occurence: naste naeste Previous occurence: forrige Last occurence: forrige sidste nyeste Delta words for going forward/backward in time When parsing deltas, there are words that may be used to specify the the delta will refer to a time in the future or to a time in the past (relative to some date). In English, for example, you might say: IN 5 days 5 days AGO The following words may be used to specify deltas that refer to dates in the past or future respectively: siden om senere Business mode This contains two lists of words which can be used to specify a standard (i.e. non-business) delta or a business delta. Previously, it was used to tell whether the delta was approximate or exact, but now this list is not used except to force the delta to be standard. The following words may be used: pracist praecist circa The following words may be used to specify a business delta: arbejdsdag arbejdsdage Numbers Numbers may be spelled out in a variety of ways. The following sets correspond to the numbers from 1 to 53: 1. forste forste en 2. anden to 3. tredie tre 4. fjerde fire 5. femte fem 6. sjette seks 7. syvende syv 8. ottende otte 9. niende ni 10. tiende ti 11. elfte elleve 12. tolvte tolv 13. trettende tretten 14. fjortende fjorten 15. femtende femten 16. sekstende seksten 17. syttende sytten 18. attende atten 19. nittende nitten 20. tyvende tyve 21. enogtyvende enogtyve 22. toogtyvende toogtyve 23. treogtyvende treogtyve 24. fireogtyvende fireogtyve 25. femogtyvende femogtyve 26. seksogtyvende seksogtyve 27. syvogtyvende syvogtyve 28. otteogtyvende otteogtyve 29. niogtyvende niogtyve 30. tredivte tredive 31. enogtredivte enogtredive 32. toogtredivte toogtredive 33. treogtredivte treogtredive 34. fireogtredivte fireogtredive 35. femogtredivte femogtredive 36. seksogtredivte seksogtredive 37. syvogtredivte syvogtredive 38. otteogtredivte otteogtredive 39. niogtredivte niogtredive 40. fyrretyvende fyrre 41. enogtyvende enogtyve 42. toogtyvende toogtyve 43. treogtyvende treogtyve 44. fireogtyvende fireogtyve 45. femogtyvende femogtyve 46. seksogtyvende seksogtyve 47. syvogtyvende syvogtyve 48. otteogtyvende otteogtyve 49. niogtyvende niogtyve 50. halvtredsindstyvende halvtreds 51. enogindstyvende enogindstyve 52. toogindstyvende toogindstyve 53. treogindstyvende treogindstyve Ignored words In writing out dates in common forms, there are a number of words that are typically not important. There is frequently a word that appears in a phrase to designate that a time is going to be specified next. In English, you would use the word AT in the example: December 3 at 12:00 The following words may be used: klokken kl kl. Another word is used to designate one member of a set. In English, you would use the words IN or OF: 1st day OF December 1st day IN December The following words may be used: om Another word is use to specify that something is on a certain date. In English, you would use ON: ON July 5th The following words may be used: pa paa Words that set the date, time, or both There are some words that can be used to specify a date, a time, or both relative to now. Words that set the date are similar to the English words 'yesterday' or 'tomorrow'. These are specified as a delta which is added to the current time to get a date. The time is NOT set however, so the delta is only partially used (it should only include year, month, week, and day fields). The following words may be used: idag 0:0:0:0:0:0:0 igar -0:0:0:1:0:0:0 igaar -0:0:0:1:0:0:0 imorgen +0:0:0:1:0:0:0 Words that set only the time of day are similar to the English words 'noon' or 'midnight'. The following words may be used: midnat 00:00:00 midt pa dagen 12:00:00 midt paa dagen 12:00:00 Words that set the entire time and date (relative to the current time and date) are also available. In English, the word 'now' is one of these. The following words may be used: nu 0:0:0:0:0:0:0 Hour/Minute/Second separators When specifying the time of day, the most common separator is a colon (:) which can be used for both separators. Some languages use different pairs. For example, French allows you to specify the time as 13h30:20, so it would use the following pairs: : : [h] [:] The first column is the hour-minute separator and the second column is the minute-second separator. Both are perl regular expressions. A pair of colons is ALWAY allowed for all languages. If a language allows additional pairs, they are listed here: [.] [:] KNOWN BUGS
