Date::Manip::Lang::danish - Danish 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   Februar   Marts   April   Maj   Juni   Juli   August   September   Oktober   November   December

The following abbreviations may be used:

   Jan   Feb   Mar   Apr   Maj   Jun   Jul   Aug   Sep   Okt   Nov   Dec

   ar   år   maneder   måneder   man   maned   mån   måned   uger   u   uge   dage   d   dag   timer   t   tim   time   minutter   m   min   minut   sekunder   s   sek   sekund
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   f.m.   EM   e.m.
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
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:

   naste   næste

Previous occurrence:

   forrige

Last occurrence:

   forrige   sidste   nyeste
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
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:

   pracist   præcist   circa

The following words may be used to specify a business delta:

   arbejdsdag   arbejdsdage
Numbers may be spelled out in a variety of ways. The following sets correspond to the numbers from 1 to 53: 

   1.   forste   første   en   2.   anden   to   3.   tredie   tre   4.   fjerde   fire   5.   femte   fem   6.   sjette   seks   7.   syvende   syv   8.   ottende   otte   9.   niende   ni   10.   tiende   ti   11.   elfte   elleve   12.   tolvte   tolv   13.   trettende   tretten   14.   fjortende   fjorten   15.   femtende   femten   16.   sekstende   seksten   17.   syttende   sytten   18.   attende   atten   19.   nittende   nitten   20.   tyvende   tyve   21.   enogtyvende   enogtyve   22.   toogtyvende   toogtyve   23.   treogtyvende   treogtyve   24.   fireogtyvende   fireogtyve   25.   femogtyvende   femogtyve   26.   seksogtyvende   seksogtyve   27.   syvogtyvende   syvogtyve   28.   otteogtyvende   otteogtyve   29.   niogtyvende   niogtyve   30.   tredivte   tredive   31.   enogtredivte   enogtredive   32.   toogtredivte   toogtredive   33.   treogtredivte   treogtredive   34.   fireogtredivte   fireogtredive   35.   femogtredivte   femogtredive   36.   seksogtredivte   seksogtredive   37.   syvogtredivte   syvogtredive   38.   otteogtredivte   otteogtredive   39.   niogtredivte   niogtredive   40.   fyrretyvende   fyrre   41.   enogtyvende   enogtyve   42.   toogtyvende   toogtyve   43.   treogtyvende   treogtyve   44.   fireogtyvende   fireogtyve   45.   femogtyvende   femogtyve   46.   seksogtyvende   seksogtyve   47.   syvogtyvende   syvogtyve   48.   otteogtyvende   otteogtyve   49.   niogtyvende   niogtyve   50.   halvtredsindstyvende   halvtreds   51.   enogindstyvende   enogindstyve   52.   toogindstyvende   toogindstyve   53.   treogindstyvende   treogindstyve
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:

   klokken   kl   kl.

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:

   om

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   på
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:

   idag                 0:0:0:0:0:0:0   igar                 -0:0:0:1:0:0:0   igår                 -0:0:0:1:0:0:0   imorgen              +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:

   midnat               00:00:00   midt pa dagen        12:00:00   midt på 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:

   nu                   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:

   \.  :
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

None known.
