and that's exactly where part 1 hands the aux cord over — part 2 picks it up right here, so don't go anywhere bestie 🦋

…and the month-name era wraps up with the short-form flex, which is giving:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 5. veebr 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 22. dets 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 15. sept -10

yMd (d.M.y) — literally day dot month dot year, no thoughts:

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 short quarter flex, K plus the number, and yes the negative year still shows up unbothered:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = K1 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = K4 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = K3 -10

yQQQQ (QQQQ y) — the full-sentence quarter era, kvartal and all:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 1. kvartal 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 4. kvartal 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 3. kvartal -10

yw-count-one (w. 'nädal' (Y)) — singular-ish count vibe, and honestly it returns the same numbers:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 6. nädal (2008)
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 51. nädal (1995)
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 37. nädal (-10)

yw-count-other (w. 'nädal' (Y)) — the "other" plural count, identical output, no cap:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 6. nädal (2008)
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 51. nädal (1995)
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 37. nädal (-10)

🎀 Miscellaneous 🎀

Okay this bit is the personality quiz of the locale, and it's short so soak it in:

Prefers 24 hour time? — Yes 💅 (no AM/PM chaos here, we're built different)
Local first day of the week — 1 (esmaspäev)

🌸 Strftime Patterns 🌸

These are the classic strftime escapes but localized, so you get all the Estonian flavour with none of the C-locale sadness. Ranking them by cuteness rn:

%c (%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y) — date time format, the full combo meal:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = T veebr  5 18:30:30 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = R dets 22 09:05:02 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = L sept 15 04:44:23 -10

%x (%m/%d/%y) — date format, month first, sorry to everyone who wanted it the other way:

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, pure clock, zero notes:

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

🫶 Friendly reminder that these all came from the same three sample timestamps — 2008-02-05T18:30:30, 1995-12-22T09:05:02 and -0010-09-15T04:44:23 — so if you're comparing patterns, you're comparing apples to apples, bestie. Don't come for me if your own output differs based on what your formatter is doing; the page is just showing you the sheet.
