Description tmtfx 2016-06-29 15:25:31 UTC
I'm the friulian coordinator for translating gnome.
As said in the mailing list:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-i18n/2016-June/msg00038.html

with gnome 3.20 I modified the dates in gnome as best as I could, but the right form of the date is this:

al 1ⁿ di jugn dal 2016      literally translated:  at the(singular) 1ˢᵗ of June of the 2016
ai 25 di jugn dal 2016     literally translated:  at the(plural) 25 of June of the 2016

at the day of today it seems impossible to implement this kind of writing, for 2 reasons:

different enumeration (ordinal number for the first day, and cardinal for others)
different singular/plural form (at the)

This should be supported by strftime() but it's not. I was going to file a bug report but I've found a similar one so I've just commented: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10547
Comment 2 GunChleoc 2017-04-21 08:31:48 UTC
This fix is also needed for my locale (Scottish Gaelic) and would follow the same pattern as English:

1 = 1d
2 = 2na
3 = 3s

Note that the CLDR does not support coding this either, so the CLDR data isn't 100% reliable here.
Comment 3 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 14:07:22 UTC
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of  gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
