✨ NAME ✨

DateTime::Locale::it — locale data examples for the Italian (it) locale 💅

(that's DateTim...ale::it(3), from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section — the man name is just longer than your terminal's patience 🎀)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay bestie, so this pod file is literally just a big ol' showcase — it contains examples of the locale data available for the Italian locale. That's it, that's the whole vibe. It's giving "here's what every single format looks like in Italian so you don't have to guess" ✨

🗓️ week counting, but make it Italian

• yw-count-one ('settimana' w 'del' Y) — the "week of the year" pattern, one flavour. Look at her go:

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

• yw-count-other ('settimana' w 'del' Y) — and the other flavour, which here is literally identical because that's just how Italian rolls, bestie. Same pattern, same energy:

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

not me showing you the exact same block twice like it's a plot twist 😭 it's not a typo, both count variants exist and both are slaying the same way 🫶

✨ Miscellaneous ✨

The little setting details that tell you everything about this locale's personality:

• Prefers 24 hour time? Yes — 24-hour girlie fr fr, no am/pm chaos here 🕕
• Local first day of the week — 1 (lunedì) — Monday is the main character, periodt 👑

---

🌈 Strftime Patterns 🌈

These are the classic strftime escapes and what they spit out in this locale. Iconic, honestly:

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

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = mar feb  5 18:30:30 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = ven dic 22 09:05:02 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = sab set 15 04:44:23 -10

• %x (%m/%d/%y) — the date format, short and sweet:

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) — the time format, just the clock doing her thing:

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

bestie please clock that %c on a negative year gives sab set 15 and there's a double space in feb 5 — that's the %e padding being her authentic self, don't "fix" it 🙈

🌸 and that's a wrap on the Italian locale data tour! This little pod was served fresh by perl v5.42.0 and stamped 2024-12-12 — remembered with love in this very cute sign-off instead of a boring footer line. ciao ciao, go format something gorgeous 💅✨🎀
