WL#4642: Greek locale for DAYNAME, MONTHNAME, DATE_FORMAT
Affects: Server-5.5
—
Status: Complete
If @@lc_time_names='el_GR', DAYNAME() and MONTHNAME() and DATE_FORMAT() functions should produce appropriate Greek results for day abbreviation, day, hours am/pm, month abbreviations, and months.
This task is a part of Sun Globalization Requirements. Functions DAYNAME, MONTHNAME, DATE_FORMAT currently do not support Greek locale (Tier 2). http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/locale-support.html This task will add el_GR locale with appropriate month/day names. Days ---- day abbreviation: (abday): Sunday = Κυρ ""; Monday = Δευ " "; Tuesday = Τρί " "; Wednesday = Τετ " "; Thursday = Πέμ " " Friday = Παρ " "; Saturday = Σάβ " "; day: Sunday = "Κυριακή" = " " Monday = "Δευτέρα" = " " Tuesday = "Τρίτη" = " " Wednesday = "Τετάρτη" = " " Thursday = "Πέμπτη" = " " Friday = "Παρασκευή" = " " Saturday = "Σάββατο" = " " Hours ----- am= "πμ" = " " pm= "μμ" = " " Months ------ month abbreviation: (abmon): Jan = Feb = Mar = Apr = May = Jun = Jul = Aug = Sep = Oct = Nov = Dec = month: (mon): month (using text notation): January = "Ιανουάριος" February = "Φεβρουάριος" March = "Μάρτιος" April = "Απρίλιος" May = "Μάιος" June = "Ιούνιος" July = "Ιούλιος" August = "Αύγουστος" September = "Σεπτέμβριος" October = "Οκτώβριος" November = "Νοέμβριος" December = "Δεκέμβριος" Nynorsk ------- During discussion about this WL and WL#751 it appeared that we're missing the Norwegian Nynorsk locale. It was decided that Nynorsk will be a separate worklog task, WL#4814 Norwegian Nynorsk locale for DAYNAME, MONTHNAME, DATE_FORMAT Authority --------- None. See comment on BUG#39092 regarding ΕΛΟΤ. On Linux distributions one can find a file named /usr/share/i18n/locales/el_GR but we do not follow it. For example our day abbreviations are as in Vista.
