DateTim...:ff_Adlm(3)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay so real talk, bestie — you just opened DateTime::Locale::ff_Adlm(3), straight out of the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and it is exactly what it sounds like: DateTime::Locale::ff_Adlm — Locale data examples for the Fula Adlam (ff-Adlm) locale. That's the whole vibe. It's a pod file, it's full of examples, and every single one of them is about to be shown to you in stunning Adlam script. Buckle up 🎀


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

This pod file contains examples of the locale data available for the Fula Adlam locale.

That's the official word, but lowkey it's a whole museum of Adlam date-and-time formatting and I'm obsessed. Every category below comes in multiple flavors — format vs. stand-alone, wide vs. abbreviated vs. narrow — and we're gonna look at all of them, no skipping, no cap 🫶

🌈 Date Formats

Three sample timestamps get run through every format so you can see the glow-up. They're always the same three: 2008-02-05T18:30:30, 1995-12-22T09:05:02, and -0010-09-15T04:44:23.

the extra v is the time zone name slot, and it's pulling UTC every time 🦋

hmv (h:mm a v)

ms (mm:ss)

minutes and seconds only, no hours, we're being mysterious 🕵️‍♀️

1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 1995

not me clocking that negative year 😭 yes the sample data really does include -0010, slay for representation

yM (M-y)

1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 12-1995
 -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 9--10

double minus is not a typo bestie, that's month 9 then year -10, periodt 💅

 -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 𞤖𞤮𞤪⹁ 15-9--10

see that ⹁ in there? that's the separator, keep it exactly, don't "fix" it into a comma fr fr 🙈

yes it matches yMMM output-wise. two different keys, same glow-up. it's giving twins 👯‍♀️

yeah same as yQQQ here. the long-form quarter just isn't beating the allegations 💀

week-of-year, but make it plural-rule aware. this is the one bucket 🧚

yw-count-other (𞤴𞤮𞤲𞤼𞤫𞤪𞤫 w 𞤲𞤣𞤫𞤪 Y)

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 𞤴𞤮𞤲𞤼𞤫𞤪𞤫 6 𞤲𞤣𞤫𞤪 2008

 -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 𞤴𞤮𞤲𞤼𞤫𞤪𞤫 37 𞤲𞤣𞤫𞤪 -10

and this is the other bucket. identical numbers, different plural category — the CLDR girlies are thorough ok 😌


🎀 Miscellaneous 🎀

A couple of lil settings, don't skip them:

  • Prefers 24 hour time? → Yes ⏰
  • Local first day of the week → 1 (𞤀𞤩𞤵𞤲𞥋𞤣𞤫) 🗓️

(that's week-day number 1, and the Adlam name for it — copy both, don't get cute with it)


🌈 Strftime Patterns 🌈

okay these are the classic strftime-style joans, and yes they each come with their own format string and three test dates. here we go:

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

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 𞤃𞤢𞤦 𞤕𞤮𞤤𞤼𞤮  5 18:30:30 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 𞤃𞤢𞤣 𞤄𞤮𞤱𞤼𞤮 22 09:05:02 1995
 -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 𞤖𞤮𞤪 𞤅𞤭𞤤𞤼𞤮 15 04:44:23 -10

👀 heads up: first line genuinely has two spaces before the 5 — that's %e padding doing its thing, so don't go collapsing whitespace on me bestie, it's load-bearing 💅

%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

24-hour clock, zero-padded, chef's kiss 🍓
