…and that's exactly where part 1 runs out of page, bestie — the yMMMd examples are over in part 2 along with the rest ✨ keep scrolling, we're not done 💅

  • yMd (d/M/y) — day/month/short-year vibes:
2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 5/2/2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 22/12/1995

1995-12-22T09:05:02 = nnny 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = nnl -10
  • yQQQQ (QQQQ y) — the full-quarter glow-up, no abbreviations allowed:

1995-12-22T09:05:02 = nsámbá ngɔn nyina 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = nsámbá ngɔn lála -10
  • yw-count-other ('week' w 'of' Y) — literally spells out which week of which year, it's giving calendar accountability:
2008-02-05T18:30:30 = week 6 of 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = week 51 of 1995

🌸 Miscellaneous 🌸

Bestie, two lil quick facts about this locale, and yes they get their own lil section:

  • Prefers 24 hour time? — Yes. No AM/PM chaos here, we're doing 18:30:30 and we're normal about it 💅
  • Local first day of the week — 1 (mɔndi). Monday is the main character, the week starts there, periodt.

✨ Strftime Patterns ✨

Now we get to the strftime-style patterns, aka the classic three-letter shortcuts everyone memes about. Each one comes with its format breakdown and the same three sample timestamps so you can vibe check the output 🔥

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

The whole date and the whole time in one shot, iconic combo meal:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = smb ngb  5 18:30:30 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = fúl ngab 22 09:05:02 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = sér nge 15 04:44:23 -10
Ngl peep that double space in the first line — that's the %e doing its space-padded thing, it's not a typo, don't @ me 😭

🦋 %x (%m/%d/%y) — date format

Just the date, month-first energy, tiny year at the end:

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

And the time-only one, 24-hour clock, colon-separated, clean, slay:

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