🎀 DateTime::Locale::en_DE — the manual page, but make it cute 🎀

okay so bestie, this is DateTim...e::en_DE(3) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it's literally the manual page for DateTime::Locale::en_DE — locale data examples for the English Germany (en-DE) locale. yes, English Germany. it's a real locale. we love a bilingual icon 💅

✨ NAME ✨

DateTime::Locale::en_DE — Locale data examples for the English Germany (en-DE) locale. that's the whole name section, she's brief and she knows it 🫶

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so this pod file (yes, a .pod, we're in Perl land, buckle up) contains examples of the locale data available for the English Germany locale. that's it. that's the description. it's a showcase, a little museum of formatted dates, and honestly? it ate. 🔥

what follows is every single piece of data, broken down by category, no skips, no shortcuts. grab a snack. 🍓

ngl bestie, notice how narrow format and narrow stand-alone are identical here — two Ts, two Ss, and no way to tell Tuesday from Thursday. that's not a bug, that's just how narrow works. iykyk 😭

yM (MM/y)

and that's exactly where this page cuts off in part 1 — yM is sitting there with its pattern but no example lines yet, which is giving "to be continued" energy 👀 part 2 picks it right back up, don't you dare go anywhere 🦋

okay bestie we're diving back in mid-list — the yM examples were literally still going, so here's the rest of that vibe, no interruptions:

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

(not the negative year serving 09/-10 😭 we respect it though 🫶)

yMEd (E, dd/MM/y)

weekday first, then the dd/MM/y situation — it's giving "I have a calendar and I'm not afraid to use it":

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Tue, 05/02/2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Fri, 22/12/1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sat, 15/09/-10

yMMM (MMM y)

short month + year, minimal, chic, zero notes:

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Feb 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Dec 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sept -10

yMMMEd (E, d MMM y)

the full lil package — weekday, day, short month, year. highkey the whole fit ✨

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Tue, 5 Feb 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Fri, 22 Dec 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sat, 15 Sept -10

yMMMM (MMMM y)

spelled-out month energy, main character behaviour, no abbreviation allowed 💅

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = February 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = December 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = September -10

yMMMd (d MMM y)

day + short month + year, the lowkey everyday fave:

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 5 Feb 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 22 Dec 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 15 Sept -10

yMd (dd/MM/y)

just the numbers bestie, zero yapping:

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

yQQQ (QQQ y)

quarter o'clock, abbreviated, Q-core 👑

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Q1 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Q4 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Q3 -10

yQQQQ (QQQQ y)

and now the quarter spelled ALL the way out, ordinal and everything, absolutely iconic:

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 1st quarter 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 4th quarter 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 3rd quarter -10

yw-count-one ('week' w 'of' Y)

the singular-week variant, very "week 6 of 2008" of it:

          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

yw-count-other ('week' w 'of' Y)

the other (plural-ish) week variant — and yeah, for en_DE it renders exactly the same as the one above, that's just how it is, no cap 🙈

          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

Miscellaneous

the lil extra settings that didn't fit anywhere else 🎀

Prefers 24 hour time? — Yes. 24h girlie through and through, 18:30:30 not 6:30 PM, periodt.
Local first day of the week — 1 (Monday). week starts Monday, that's the rule, don't argue 🌸

Strftime Patterns

the classic strftime-style formats, for when you're feeling retro 💾✨

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

the whole date and time, one glorious string:

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Tue Feb  5 18:30:30 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Fri Dec 22 09:05:02 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sat Sept 15 04:44:23 -10

(spot the double space before the 5? that's %e, bestie — it's just built like that 🦋)

%x (%m/%d/%y) - date format

date only, cute and compact:

          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

time only, 24-hour, immaculate:

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