Date::Manip::Lang::german - German language support.
This module contains a list of words and expressions supporting the language. It is not intended to be used directly (other Date::Manip modules will load it as needed).
The following is a list of all language words and expressions used to write times and/or dates.
All strings are case insensitive.
When writing out the name of the month, several different variations may exist including full names and abbreviations.
The following month names may be used:
Januar Jänner Februar März Marz Maerz April Mai Juni Juli August September Oktober November Dezember
The following abbreviations may be used:
Jän Jan Feb Mär Mar Apr Mai Jun Jul Aug Sep Okt Nov Dez
When writing out the name of the day, several different variations may exist including full names and abbreviations.
The following day names may be used:
Montag Dienstag Mittwoch Donnerstag Freitag Samstag Sonnabend Sonntag
Mo Mo. Di Di. Mi Mi. Do Do. Fr Fr. Sa Sa. So So.
The following short (1-2 characters) abbreviations may be used:
M Di Mi Do F Sa So
These are the names (and abbreviations) for the fields in a delta. There are 7 fields: years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, seconds.
The names and abbreviations for these fields are:
Jahren j Jahr Jahre Monaten m Monat Monate Wochen w Woche Tagen t Tag Tage Stunden h std Stunde Minuten min Minute Sekunden s sek Sekunde
This is a list of expressions use to designate morning or afternoon time when a time is entered as a 12-hour time rather than a 24-hour time. For example, in English, the time "17:00" could be specified as "5:00 PM".
Morning and afternoon time may be designated by the following sets of words:
FM vorm. EM nachm.
There are a list of words that specify every occurrence of something. These are used in the following phrases:
EACH Monday EVERY Monday EVERY month
The following words may be used:
jeden
There are a list of words that may be used to specify the next, previous, or last occurrence of something. These words could be used in the following phrases:
NEXT week LAST Tuesday PREVIOUS Tuesday LAST day of the month
Next occurrence:
nachsten nächsten nachste nächste
Previous occurrence:
vorherigen vorherige letzte letzten
Last occurrence:
letzten letzte
When parsing deltas, there are words that may be used to specify the the delta will refer to a time in the future or to a time in the past (relative to some date). In English, for example, you might say:
IN 5 days 5 days AGO
The following words may be used to specify deltas that refer to dates in the past or future respectively:
vor vorigen vorherigen vorherige in spater später
This contains two lists of words which can be used to specify a standard (i.e. non-business) delta or a business delta.
Previously, it was used to tell whether the delta was approximate or exact, but now this list is not used except to force the delta to be standard.
genau ungefahr ungefähr
The following words may be used to specify a business delta:
Arbeitstag Arbeits
Numbers may be spelled out in a variety of ways. The following sets correspond to the numbers from 1 to 53:
1. erste erster eins 2. zweite zwei zweiter 3. dritte drei dritter 4. vierte vier 5. funfte fünfte fünf fünfter funf funfter 6. sechste sechs sechster 7. siebente siebte sieben siebter 8. achte achten 9. neunte neun neunten 10. zehnte zehn zehnten 11. elfte elf 12. zwolfte zwölfte zwölf zwölften zwolf zwolften 13. dreizehnte dreizehn 14. vierzehnte vierzehn 15. funfzehnte fünfzehnte fünfzehn fünfzehnten funfzehn funfzehnten 16. sechzehnte sechzehn 17. siebzehnte siebzehn 18. achtzehnte achtzehn 19. neunzehnte neunzehn 20. zwanzigste zwanzig zwanzigsten 21. einundzwanzigste einundzwanzigsten 22. zweiundzwanzigste zweiundzwanzigsten 23. dreiundzwanzigste dreiundzwanzigsten 24. vierundzwanzigste vierundzwanzigsten 25. funfundzwanzigste fünfundzwanzigste fünfundzwanzigsten funfundzwanzigsten 26. sechsundzwanzigste sechsundzwanzigsten 27. siebenundzwanzigste siebenundzwanzigsten 28. achtundzwanzigste achtundzwanzigsten 29. neunundzwanzigste neunundzwanzigsten 30. dreibigste dreißigste dreißig dreißigsten dreibig dreibigsten 31. einunddreibigste einunddreißigste einunddreißig einunddreißigsten einunddreibig einunddreibigsten 32. zweiunddreißig zweiunddreißigste zweiunddreibig zweiunddreibigste 33. dreiunddreißig dreiunddreißigsten dreiunddreibig dreiunddreibigsten 34. vierunddreißig vierunddreißigste vierunddreibig vierunddreibigste 35. fünfunddreißig fünfunddreißigste funfunddreibig funfunddreibigste 36. sechsunddreißig sechsunddreißigste sechsunddreibig sechsunddreibigste 37. siebenunddreißig siebenunddreißigsten siebenunddreibig siebenunddreibigsten 38. achtunddreißig achtunddreißigsten achtunddreibig achtunddreibigsten 39. neununddreißig neununddreißigsten neununddreibig neununddreibigsten 40. vierzig vierzigsten 41. einundvierzig einundvierzigsten 42. zweiundvierzig zweiundvierzigsten 43. dreiundvierzig dreiundvierzigsten 44. vierundvierzig vierundvierzigsten 45. fünfundvierzig fünfundvierzigsten funfundvierzig funfundvierzigsten 46. sechsundvierzig sechsundvierzigsten 47. siebenundvierzig siebenundvierzigste 47. siebenundvierzig siebenundvierzigste 49. neunundvierzig neunundvierzigsten 50. fünfzig fünfzigsten funfzig funfzigsten 51. einundfünfzig einundfünfzigsten einundfunfzig einundfunfzigsten 52. zweiundfünfzig zweiundfünfzigsten zweiundfunfzig zweiundfunfzigsten 53. dreiundfünfzig dreiundfünfzigsten dreiundfunfzig dreiundfunfzigsten
In writing out dates in common forms, there are a number of words that are typically not important.
There is frequently a word that appears in a phrase to designate that a time is going to be specified next. In English, you would use the word AT in the example:
December 3 at 12:00
um
Another word is used to designate one member of a set. In English, you would use the words IN or OF:
1st day OF December 1st day IN December
der im des
Another word is use to specify that something is on a certain date. In English, you would use ON:
ON July 5th
am
There are some words that can be used to specify a date, a time, or both relative to now.
Words that set the date are similar to the English words 'yesterday' or 'tomorrow'. These are specified as a delta which is added to the current time to get a date. The time is NOT set however, so the delta is only partially used (it should only include year, month, week, and day fields).
gestern -0:0:0:1:0:0:0 heute 0:0:0:0:0:0:0 morgen +0:0:0:1:0:0:0 übermorgen +0:0:0:2:0:0:0
Words that set only the time of day are similar to the English words 'noon' or 'midnight'.
mittag 12:00:00 mitternacht 00:00:00
Words that set the entire time and date (relative to the current time and date) are also available.
In English, the word 'now' is one of these.
jetzt 0:0:0:0:0:0:0
When specifying the time of day, the most common separator is a colon (:) which can be used for both separators.
Some languages use different pairs. For example, French allows you to specify the time as 13h30:20, so it would use the following pairs:
: : h :
The first column is the hour-minute separator and the second column is the minute-second separator. Both are perl regular expressions. When creating a new translation, be aware that regular expressions with utf-8 characters may be tricky. For example, don't include the expression '[x]' where 'x' is a utf-8 character.
A pair of colons is ALWAYS allowed for all languages. If a language allows additional pairs, they are listed here:
Not defined in this language
When specifying fractional seconds, the most common way is to use a decimal point (.). Some languages may specify a different separator that might be used. If this is done, it is a regular expression.
The decimal point is ALWAYS allowed for all languages. If a language allows another separator, it is listed here:
None known.
