🫶 and that's where part 1 runs out, bestie — the list keeps going in part 2, so don't wander off. 💅

so the last block from before was still doing its thing with the full era name, and then we roll into the next two patterns, no biggie:

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Ĩmwe kĩrĩ inya 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Inya kĩrĩ inya 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Ithatũ kĩrĩ inya -10

next up, yQQQQ (QQQQ y) — the way this one stacks the year with the full era name, obsessed actually:

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Ĩmwe kĩrĩ inya 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Inya kĩrĩ inya 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Ithatũ kĩrĩ inya -10

and then yw-count-other ('week' w 'of' Y) — literally spelling out the week number and the year, 'week' w 'of' Y, no cap:

          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

🎀 MISCELLANEOUS 🎀

just a couple of little vibe-check facts about this locale, bestie:

  • Prefers 24 hour time? — Yes 💅 (so 18:30:30, not 6:30:30 PM, iykyk)
  • Local first day of the week — 7 (Kiumia)

✨ STRFTIME PATTERNS ✨

okay so these are the shortcut patterns, and honestly they're giving main character energy 🎀
