DateTim...e::am_ET(3)
β¨ NAME β¨
Congrats bestie, you found the page for DateTime::Locale::am_ET β it's the locale data examples for the Amharic Ethiopia (am-ET) locale π
It lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and the page you're reading right now is filed under DateTim...e::am_ET(3) (yes, the name is literally truncated like that, no I did not do it, it's iconic in a cursed way π).
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
This pod file is literally just a big pile of examples showing off the locale data that's available for the Amharic Ethiopia locale. Like, every list, every format, every sample rendering β all up in here. No cap π«Ά
Fair warning: this page is long, so it's coming at you in parts. Strap in.
ποΈ Days
Okay so the days are giving three levels of detail β Wide, Abbreviated, and Narrow β and each one exists in a format flavour and a stand-alone flavour. Same seven days every time, just with different amounts of letters. Obsessed with the consistency, honestly β¨

β Date Formats
Four sizes β Full, Long, Medium, Short β and each one gets three sample timestamps so you can see exactly what the rendering looks like. Three timestamps in every format, so you can compare apples to apples. Note the third one is a negative year, and it's giving chaos π (it's -0010, that's just how it is).
