Unfortunately this does not work as I need. Only the "1" should be
converted to 1er, not the other numbers.
French is a bit special:
You say "le premier novembre" but not "le un novembre".
You say "le deux novembre" but not "le deuxième novembre".
According to https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/date:
"The name suffixes indicate number conversions. Any conversion, either
built-in or defined by \defineconversion, can be used there."
But it does not seem to work...

Hi,
When printing a date in French, I would like to convert the "1" to
"1\ier", but it does not work as I expect:
--8<---cut here---start->8---
\startluacode
-- from https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/defineconversion:
interfaces.implement {
name = "FRdate",
public= true,
arguments = "string",

function(s)
local n = tonumber(s)
if n == 1 then
context"1\\ier"
else

\defineconversion[frd][\FRdate]
\setuplanguage[fr][date={day:frd,\ ,month,\ ,year}]
\starttext
Conversion: \convertnumber{frd}{1}, \convertnumber{frd}{2} (OK)\\
Dates: \date[d=1], \date[d=2] (not OK)
\stoptext
--8<---cut here---end--->8---
How could I get "1\ier\ novembre 2023" please?
\mainlanguage[fr]
\setuplanguage[fr][date={day:++,\ ,month,\ ,year}]
\starttext
Dates: \date[d=1], \date[d=2] (not OK)
