DateTim...e::ps_PK(3)

💖 NAME 💖

DateTime::Locale::ps_PK — the locale data examples page for the Pashto Pakistan (ps-PK) locale. This is the DateTim...e::ps_PK(3) page from User Contributed Perl Documentation, bestie, and it's literally a whole tour of how Pashto-in-Pakistan dates and times get formatted 🫶✨

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so this pod file is basically a showcase — it's packed with examples of the locale data that's available for the Pashto Pakistan locale 💅 No cap, it's just vibes and data. Every section below is showing you how the same moment in time gets spelled out in different widths and formats, so you can see the whole personality of the locale at a glance.

🦋 Days 🦋

The seven days, but in six different outfits ✨ Watch how the wide and abbreviated ones are twinning (they're literally identical here) while narrow goes full minimal.

🌈 Months 🌈

Twelve months, six ways, and this is where the stand-alone versions start doing their own little thing 👀 (peep فېبروري vs فبروري and سپتمبر vs سېپتمبر — the format and stand-alone sets are not carbon copies here, and that's the whole point).

🎀 Eras 🎀

Just two eras, and ngl the abbreviated and narrow sets are out here matching exactly — the format strings are where the drama lives (you'll see څخه show up in the wide one and dip out of the others 👀).
