💅 DateTime::Locale::vmw

okay bestie, so this is a User Contributed Perl Documentation page — it's DateTim...ale::vmw(3) if you're squinting at the header, and it's literally the wiki of how the Makhuwa (vmw) locale does dates and times. no cap, it's just data, but it ate. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

DateTime::Locale::vmw — locale data examples for the Makhuwa (vmw) locale. periodt. 💖

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

this pod file contains examples of the locale data available for the Makhuwa locale. that's it, that's the whole vibe — it's a show-and-tell of every string the locale knows how to spit out. let's go 🎀

not the abbreviated and wide lists being identical 😭 honestly iconic of them. and yes, narrow is just M T W T F S S with two Ts and two Ss — that's not a typo, that's literally the data, so don't come for me 🙈

twelve months, twelve slays 💅 and the narrow ones are just the numbers 1 through 12 — yes, 10, 11, 12 get two digits while the rest get one. that's the data, bestie, i don't make the rules 🫶

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

the way Long and Medium give the exact same output for all three samples 😭 not a mistake, that's just how it renders here. and peep the negative year -10 — yes the input is -0010 and the output is -10, no cap 🧐

Full and Long are twins fr fr — both slap a UTC on there. Medium and Short drop the timezone and just keep the clock. short and sweet, main character energy 🕐

date + time glued together, and the way Full keeps that comma before the weekday (5, namaanli) while Long just uses a space (5 18:30:30 UTC)… the attention to detail is giving perfectionist 💅

yMd (`d/M/y`)

and this is exactly where part 1 stops, bestie — the yMd examples are on the next page. don't leave me hanging, go read part 2 🫶✨

…annnnd the last few lines of that pattern block, for the record 📝 (same three timestamps, every time — they're the vibe check of this whole page):

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 5/2/2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 22/12/1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 15/9/-10

Ok now the quarter patterns, bestie — yQQQ and yQQQQ are literally twins here, same output, no cap 👯‍♀️

`yQQQ` (`y QQQ`)

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 2008 Q1
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 1995 Q4
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = -10 Q3

`yQQQQ` (`y QQQQ`)

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 2008 Q1
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 1995 Q4
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = -10 Q3

`yw-count-other` (`'week' w 'of' Y`)

This one's giving calendar-girl energy, it spells the whole thing out 🗓️✨

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 ✨

The lil random settings that don't fit anywhere else but lowkey matter:

Prefers 24 hour time? → Yes 🕕 (we're not doing AM/PM, thank u)
Local first day of the week → 1 (nihiku noolempwa)

Not me noticing that first-day-of-week string is nihiku noolempwa — that's exactly what's written in the source, so it's what you get. Don't @ me, I don't make the locale data, I just report it 💅

🌸 Strftime Patterns 🌸

These are the old-school strftime style formats — the OGs. Here's exactly what each one spits out for our three trusty timestamps 💖

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

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = namaanli fevereiru  5 18:30:30 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = namathanu dezembru 22 09:05:02 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = esaabadu setembru 15 04:44:23 -10

(Yes, there are two spaces before the 5 — that's %e, it space-pads. Copy it exactly, don't "tidy" it 🙈)

`%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
