Date::Manip::Lang::norwegian(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation NAME Date::Manip::Lang::norwegian - Norwegian language support. SYNOPSIS 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). LANGUAGE EXPRESSIONS The following is a list of all language words and expressions used to write times and/or dates. All strings are case insensitive. Month names and abbreviations 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 februar mars april mai juni juli august september oktober november desember The following abbreviations may be used: jan feb mar mars apr april mai jun juni jul juli aug sep okt nov des Day names and abbreviations When writing out the name of the day, several different variations may exist including full names and abbreviations.

There are 7 fields: years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, seconds. The names and abbreviations for these fields are: aar ar a aa maaneder maneder maned mnd maaned mnd uker uke uk ukr u dager dag d timer time t minutter minutt min m sekunder sekund sek s Morning/afternoon times 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 EM Each or every 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: hver Next/Previous/Last occurrence 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 The following words may be used: Next occurrence: neste Previous occurrence: forrige Last occurrence: siste Delta words for going forward/backward in time 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: siden om senere Business mode 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. The following words may be used: eksakt cirka omtrent The following words may be used to specify a business delta: arbeidsdag arbeidsdager Numbers Numbers may be spelled out in a variety of ways. The following sets correspond to the numbers from 1 to 53: forste foerste en andre to tredje tre fjerde fire femte fem sjette seks syvende syv attende aattende atte aatte niende ni tiende ti ellevte elleve tolvte tolv trettende tretten fjortende fjorten femtende femten sekstende seksten syttende sytten attende atten nittende nitten tjuende tjue tjueforste tjuefoerste tjueen tjueandre tjueto tjuetredje tjuetre tjuefjerde tjuefire tjuefemte tjuefem tjuesjette tjueseks tjuesyvende tjuesyv tjueattende tjueaattende tjueatte tjueaatte tjueniende tjueni trettiende tretti trettiforste trettifoerste trettien trettiandre trettito trettitredje trettitre trettifjerde trettifire trettifemte trettifem trettisjette trettiseks trettisyvende trettisyv trettiattende trettiaattende trettiatte trettiaatte trettiniende trettini fortiende foertiende forti foerti fortiforste foertifoerste fortien foertien fortiandre foertiandre fortito foertito fortitredje foertitredje fortitre foertitre fortifjerde foertifjerde fortifire foertifire fortifemte foertifemte fortifem foertifem fortisjette foertisjette fortiseks foertiseks fortisyvende foertisyvende fortisyv foertisyv fortiattende foertiaattende fortiatte foertiaatte fortiniende foertiniende fortini foertini femtiende femti femtiforste femtifoerste femtien femtiandre femtito femtitredje femtitre Ignored words 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 The following words may be used: kl kl. klokken 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 The following words may be used: forste foerste Another word is use to specify that something is on a certain date. In English, you would use ON: ON July 5th The following words may be used: pa paa Words that set the date, time, or both 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). The following words may be used: i dag 0:0:0:0:0:0:0 i gaar -0:0:0:1:0:0:0 i gar -0:0:0:1:0:0:0 i morgen +0:0:0:1:0:0:0 Words that set only the time of day are similar to the English words 'noon' or 'midnight'. The following words may be used: midnatt 00:00:00 midt paa dagen 12:00:00 midt pa dagen 12:00:00 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. The following words may be used: naa 0:0:0:0:0:0:0 na 0:0:0:0:0:0:0 Hour/Minute/Second separators 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 Fractional second separator 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: Not defined in this language KNOWN BUGS None known.
