✨ NAME ✨

Okay so bestie, this is DateTime::Locale::ta_SG — the locale data examples for the Tamil Singapore (ta-SG) locale. And it's coming to you straight from the User Contributed Perl Documentation, which is exactly as iconic as it sounds. 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the vibe: this pod file is literally just examples of all the locale data that's available for the Tamil Singapore locale. No cap — every string, every format, every number is spelled out below so you can see exactly what ta-SG is serving before you go touching anything. Let's walk it section by section. 💅

Same three sample timestamps for every width — 2008-02-05T18:30:30, 1995-12-22T09:05:02, and the cursed little -0010-09-15T04:44:23 — so you can directly compare. That's the kind of consistency I live for. ✨

That's all 33 of the available formats in this part — from Bh all the way down to the humble little d. Ngl, watching the list go from full datetime vibes to literally just a day number is such a satisfying arc. 🍓

Okay that's where part 1 wraps, bestie — part 2 is right behind it, so don't go anywhere. 💖

Alright, back to the buffet of named formats ✨ — every single one gets the exact same three test timestamps so you can eyeball what it spits out. Watch how the third one (a negative year, yes, -0010) just keeps on vibing through all of them 😭

🌸 Miscellaneous

A couple of locale quirks, lowkey the most fun part:

Prefers 24 hour time? No 🙅‍♀️
Local first day of the week — 7 (ஞாயிறு)

🌈 Strftime Patterns

The classic strftime trio, but localized. Same three timestamps, same energy 💅

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

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = செவ. பிப.  5 18:30:30 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = வெள. டிச. 22 09:05:02 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = சனி செப. 15 04:44:23 -10

That first line really does have the double space in it (பிப. 5) — keep it exact if you're comparing strings, no cap 🧚

%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

%X (%H:%M:%S) — time format

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 18:30:30
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 09:05:02
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 04:44:23

💖 SUPPORT

Need more? See DateTime::Locale. That's the whole support section, she's short and sweet 🎀

And that's a wrap on the ta_SG locale data, bestie — every pattern, every example, every stray dash preserved 🦋 This page ships with perl v5.42.0 and was dated 2024-12-12, and the whole thing lives under the name DateTim...e::ta_SG(3) (yes the name got squished, that's just how the man page title renders, don't come for me 😭). Go format something iconic ✨💜
