🦋 `DateTime::Locale::scn` — the Sicilian locale, bestie edition 💅

ok so this page is literally the manual for DateTime::Locale::scn, aka the locale data examples for the Sicilian (scn) locale, straight outta the User Contributed Perl Documentation. it's a pod file, it's a whole vibe, and we're gonna walk through every single one of these tables together. no skimming, no "you get the idea" — we're doing all of it. periodt. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

DateTime::Locale::scn — locale data examples for the Sicilian (scn) locale.

like, that's the whole name section. short, sweet, iconic. 🎀

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

this pod file contains examples of the locale data available for the Sicilian locale. that's the official description and we are not editorializing it (ok we're editorializing it a little). everything below is literally the data, laid out so you can see exactly what each format gives you. 🫶

🌈 Days 🌈

so days come in three widths — wide, abbreviated, narrow — and each of those comes in two flavors: format (how it looks inside a full date) and stand-alone (how it looks on its own). and listen. for Sicilian here, the format and stand-alone versions are the exact same strings. not me checking twice 💀 — yes I did. here we go:

⭐ Wide (format)

⭐ Abbreviated (format)

see what I mean? twin behavior. the narrow ones are just single letters and yes there are two Ts and two Ss, that's not a typo, that's just Tuesday/Thursday and Saturday/Sunday living their truth. 😭 💜

🎀 Months 🎀

same deal — three widths, format and stand-alone. and again, the wide and abbreviated ones are byte-for-byte identical to each other, which is a choice and I respect it. the month names here are literally M01 through M12, which honestly? unbothered. clean. 🧚

the narrow ones are just plain digits 1–12, no zero padding, no drama. slay. ✨

💅 Quarters 💅

quarters! Q1–Q4 for the wide and abbreviated versions (format and stand-alone, all the same), and bare 1–4 for the narrow ones. that's it, that's the section. lowkey the most chill part of this whole page. 🍓

👑 Eras 👑

ok so eras only get three versions here — wide, abbreviated, narrow — and note that there's no stand-alone for eras, so don't come for me, I'm just reporting the data. and the three? all identical: BCE and CE. no cap. 💀

💜 Date Formats 💜

here's where it gets fun — each named format gets three sample datetimes so you can see exactly what comes out. the three samples (every single time, no exceptions) are:

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

🌟 Full

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 2008 M02 5, Tue
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 1995 M12 22, Fri
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = -10 M09 15, Sat

🌟 Short

-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = -10-09-15

and yeah, that negative year is literally written -10 — the sample datetime is year -10 and it prints that way. don't blame me, I'm just the messenger. 🙈

🌸 Time Formats 🌸

same four levels, now for times only. watch how Full and Long both tack on UTC while Medium and Short drop it. character development. 🎬

phew. okay. that was a lot of M02. but we got through it together. 🫶

🌟 Miscellaneous 🌟

the little extras, the fun facts, the vibe check section. 🧚

Prefers 24 hour time?

Yes.

Local first day of the week

1 (Mon)

so: 24-hour clock, week starts Monday. very European of it. we love. 💜

💫 Strftime Patterns 💫

ok so %c here is the date-time format, and the pattern is %a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y. note that %e pads with a space, which is why you see two spaces after M02 in the first example — that's not me being sloppy, that's literally the output. 💅
