💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to DateTime::Locale::kl — a whole pod file of locale data examples for the Kalaallisut (kl) locale. Yes, that's the manual page you're reading (DateTim...ale::kl(3), from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, iykyk) and yes it is basically a very thorough show-and-tell of every string this locale knows how to spit out. 🌸

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

fr fr, this page is just examples. It's a showcase of the locale data that's available for the Kalaallisut locale — like someone opened the data drawer and dumped all the pretty pieces out so you can see exactly what each one looks like. No cap, every block below is verbatim locale output. 🫶

ok so notice the dots instead of colons in the Full/Long ones — 18.30.30 — and then Medium and Short drop to colons? not me being obsessed with the details. and Full + Long both tack on UTC. 💀

this is the big one bestie, the whole catalogue 💖 each heading is the format's name followed by its pattern in parens, then the three canonical sample timestamps rendered through it. same three timestamps every single time, so you can compare across formats. slay.

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

okay so this is where part 1 of the catalogue runs out, bestie — the yw-count-other format's pattern is 'week' w 'of' Y, and the examples pick up right after this in part 2. 🦋 stay tuned, we're not done slaying yet 💖

…aaand that's the wrap on the week-number lineup, bestie — three vibe-checks, three answers:

  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

Lowkey obsessed with how -0010 just casually sits there being week 37 of negative ten. History really said "let her cook" 💅

🎀 Miscellaneous 🎀

Okay so the little odds-and-ends of this locale, the ~personality traits~ if you will:

Prefers 24 hour time? Yes — she's on that 18:30 grind, no 6:30 PM energy here. Iconic, honestly.
Local first day of the week: 1 (ataasinngorneq) — that's Sunday as the first day, in Kalaallisut. Not me learning a whole new weekday name just from reading a manpage 😭🫶

✨ Strftime Patterns ✨

These are the strftime-flavoured patterns this locale ships, and every single one comes with receipts. Keep them exactly as written — characters matter, no cap. 🔥

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

The full date-and-time combo platter:

  2008-02-05T18:30:30 = mar febr  5 18:30:30 2008
  1995-12-22T09:05:02 = tal dec 22 09:05:02 1995
 -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = arf sept 15 04:44:23 -10

Note the double space before the 5 in the first line — that's %e, which pads with a space, and she's not apologising for it. 🧚

`%x` (`%m/%d/%y`) — date format

Just the date part, month-first, two-digit year:

  2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 02/05/08
  1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 12/22/95
 -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 09/15/10

That last one is giving time-travel chaos — year -10 renders as 10, so 09/15/10. Do not come for it, she's doing her best 🙈

`%X` (`%H:%M:%S`) — time format

And the pure clock, 24-hour style, 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
