🌸 `DateTime::Locale::bas` 🌸

Okay bestie, so this is user contributed Perl documentation for DateTime::Locale::bas(3) — the manual page, part one of two. It's basically a whole vibe check on how the Basaa (bas) locale formats dates and times. Let's get into it 💅

✨ NAME ✨

DateTime::Locale::bas — Locale data examples for the Basaa (bas) locale

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

This pod file contains examples of the locale data available for the Basaa locale. Literally just examples, no cap — it's a show-and-tell of every format string the locale ships with 🫶

🦋 Days

The seven days, in five different flavours. Same energy, different fonts ✨

🎀 Date Formats

Okay so real talk, these are the date-only renders, each one shown against the same three sample timestamps so you can clock the difference 👀

Full

-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 15/9/-10

⭐ Time Formats

Time-only now. Clock the UTC suffix on Full and Long but not Medium and Short — that's the whole difference, bestie 🕐

🦋 Datetime Formats

Date and time together, living in perfect harmony. Full and Long get the UTC, Medium and Short don't 💜

...and the examples for that last one land like this:

-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 15 dip -10

yMd (d/M/y) — day first, month second, year last, slashes between. Obsessed with how clean this is:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 5/2/2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 22/12/1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 15/9/-10

yQQQ (QQQ y) — the abbreviated quarter, then the year. Short and cute:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = K1s3 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = K4s3 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = K3s3 -10

yQQQQ (QQQQ y) — the full-length quarter, no abbreviation, all the words. It's giving main character energy:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Kèk bisu i soŋ iaâ 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Kèk i ńyonos binâ i soŋ iaâ 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Kèk i ńyonos biaâ i soŋ iaâ -10

yw-count-other ('week' w 'of' Y) — literally the word week, the week number, the word of, then the year. Ngl this one's so readable it hurts:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = week 6 of 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = week 51 of 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = week 37 of -10

Local first day of the week — 1 (ŋgwà njaŋgumba)

⏰ Strftime Patterns

Okay so these are the classic strftime-style patterns, the ones you've definitely seen before. Same three test dates, same energy ✨

%c (%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y) — date time format

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = uum mac  5 18:30:30 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = kɔɔ liɓ 22 09:05:02 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = jon dip 15 04:44:23 -10

Yes, bestie, that's a double space in uum mac 5 — %e pads the day with a space. Leave it exactly like that, it's iconic and it's correct 🫶

%x (%m/%d/%y) — date format

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 02/05/08
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 12/22/95
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 09/15/10

%X (%H:%M:%S) — time format

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 18:30:30
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 09:05:02
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 04:44:23
