Date::Manip::Lang(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				      Date::Manip::Lang(3)

NAME

       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.
