💅 NAME 💅

DateTime::Locale::ms — the locale data examples for the Malay (ms) locale, bestie. This is the DateTim...ale::ms(3) page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, and yes we're getting into all of it ✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so this pod file is literally just a big ol' showcase of the locale data you get for the Malay locale. It's giving reference material, it's giving "here's every string, don't ask me twice" 🫶

Full and Long are literally twins here, same output top to bottom. That's not me being lazy, that's the actual data, iykyk 💅 And PTG / PG are the Malay day-period markers showing up right there in the output 🫶

Bestie notice the comma situation 👀 Medium and Short squeeze a , between date and time, Full and Long just use a space. Details matter, we keep them all.

...and the quarter-name lookup finishes out like this:

1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Suku Ke-4 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Suku Ke-3 -10

okay so lowkey the way Suku Ke-4 1995 shows up for 1995-12-22T09:05:02 is so satisfying — December is literally the fourth quarter, she ate 💅 and -0010-09-15T04:44:23 giving Suku Ke-3 -10? yes bestie, negative years work too, no cap. copy these strings exactly, they're data, not vibes ✨

Then there's:

yw-count-other ('minggu' w 'daripada' Y)

which is the pattern for week-of-year phrased as words, and here's how the three iconic sample timestamps answer it:

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

so minggu 6 daripada 2008 = week 6 of 2008, minggu 51 daripada 1995 = week 51 of 1995, and even the chaotic -10 year gets minggu 37 daripada -10. the pattern text in the parens is written with w and Y placeholders — keep them verbatim, they're not typos, they're the recipe 🎀

🌸 MISCELLANEOUS 🌸

Two tiny little facts, both very much load-bearing:

Prefers 24 hour time? — No. literally no. the locale said nope to 24-hour time 🙈
Local first day of the week — 1 (Isnin).

that's the whole section. short, sweet, ate. 🍓

✨ STRFTIME PATTERNS ✨

these are the strftime-style patterns this locale ships with, plus the three sample dates so you can see them in the wild. the format codes in the parens? keep them exactly.

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

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Sel Feb  5 18:30:30 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Jum Dis 22 09:05:02 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sab Sep 15 04:44:23 -10

notice the double space before the 5 on Feb 5? that's %e doing %e things (space-padded day of month), not a formatting accident. don't "fix" it bestie, it's canon 🫶

`%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

%m/%d/%y = month/day/two-digit-year. and yeah, -10 renders as 10 because %y is two digits — that's the info, use it wisely 👑

`%X` (`%H:%M:%S`) — time format

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 18:30:30
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 09:05:02
