Date::Manip::Lang::french - French 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 abbreviations may be used:

   jan   janv   jan.   janv.   fév   fev   févr   fev.   fév.   févr.   mar   mar.   avr   avr.   mai   mai.   juin   jui   juin.   jui.   juil   jul   juil.   jul.   août   aout   aoû   aou   aout.   août.   sept   sep   sept.   sep.   oct   oct.   nov   nov.   déc   dec   dec.   déc.

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:

   annees   années   an   annee   ans   année   mois   m   semaine   semaines   sem   jours   j   jour   journee   journée   heures   h   heure   minutes   mn   min   minute   secondes   s   sec   seconde
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:

   du matin   du soir
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:

   chaque   tous les   toutes les
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:

   suivant   suivante   prochain   prochaine

Previous occurrence:

   precedent   précédent   precedente   précédente   derniere   dernière

Last occurrence:

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:

   il y a   auparavant   dans le passé   plus tot   plus tôt   en   plus tard   dans l'avenir   a venir   à venir   dans
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:

   exactement   approximativement   environ

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

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

   1er   1re   premier   un   2e   deux   deuxieme   deuxième   3e   trois   troisieme   troisième   4e   quatre   quatrieme   quatrième   5e   cinq   cinquieme   cinquième   6e   six   sixieme   sixième   7e   sept   septieme   septième   8e   huit   huitieme   huitième   9e   neuf   neuvieme   neuvième   10e   dix   dixieme   dixième   11e   onze   onzieme   onzième   12e   douze   douzieme   douzième   13e   treize   treizieme   treizième   14e   quatorze   quatorzieme   quatorzième   15e   quinze   quinzieme   quinzième   16e   seize   seizieme   seizième   17e   dix-sept   dix-septieme   dix-septième   18e   dix-huit   dix-huitieme   dix-huitième   19e   dix-neuf   dix-neuvieme   dix-neuvième   20e   vingt   vingtieme   vingtième   21e   vingt et un   vingt et unieme   vingt et unième   22e   vingt-deux   vingt-deuxieme   vingt-deuxième   23e   vingt-trois   vingt-troisieme   vingt-troisième   24e   vingt-quatre   vingt-quatrieme   vingt-quatrième   25e   vingt-cinq   vingt-cinquieme   vingt-cinquième   26e   vingt-six   vingt-sixieme   vingt-sixième   27e   vingt-sept   vingt-septieme   vingt-septième   28e   vingt-huit   vingt-huitieme   vingt-huitième   29e   vingt-neuf   vingt-neuvieme   vingt-neuvième   30e   trente   trentieme   trentième   31e   trente et un   trente et unieme   trente et unième   32e   trente-deux   trente-deuxieme   trente-deuxième   33e   trente-trois   trente-troisieme   trente-troisième   34e   trente-quatre   trente-quatrieme   trente-quatrième   35e   trente-cinq   trente-cinquieme   trente-cinquième   36e   trente-six   trente-sixieme   trente-sixième   37e   trente-sept   trente-septieme   trente-septième   38e   trente-huit   trente-huitieme   trente-huitième   39e   trente-neuf   trente-neuvieme   trente-neuvième   40e   quarante   quarantieme   quarantième   41e   quarante et un   quarante et unieme   quarante et unième   42e   quarante-deux   quarante-deuxieme   quarante-deuxième   43e   quarante-trois   quarante-troisieme   quarante-troisième   44e   quarante-quatre   quarante-quatrieme   quarante-quatrième   45e   quarante-cinq   quarante-cinquieme   quarante-cinquième   46e   quarante-six   quarante-sixieme   quarante-sixième   47e   quarante-sept   quarante-septieme   quarante-septième   48e   quarante-huit   quarante-huitieme   quarante-huitième   49e   quarante-neuf   quarante-neuvieme   quarante-neuvième   50e   cinquante   cinquantieme   cinquantième   51e   cinquante et un   cinquante et unieme   cinquante et unième   52e   cinquante-deux   cinquante-deuxieme   cinquante-deuxième   53e   cinquante-trois   cinquante-troisieme   cinquante-troisième
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:

   a   à

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:

   de   en   du

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:

   sur
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:

   aujourd'hui          0:0:0:0:0:0:0   aujourd’hui          0:0:0:0:0:0:0   demain               +0:0:0:1:0:0:0   hier                 -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:

   midi                 12:00:00   minuit               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.

The following words may be used:

   maintenant           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:

   h  :
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.
