--- Comment #8 from Andre Klapper <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #7) > Why would it be wrong to use the genitive month names in German? See comment 4: Simply nobody ever does that. Same in English: Would you say "December's 25th"? No, but is it wrong? Neither. :D > It would be great if someone could actually explain this stuff > to me instead of just telling me I'm doing it wrong :P The explanation likely is: Grammars in languages differ, and not all languages use genitive for month names. Hmm, maybe http://erack.org/blog/archives/2-LibreOffice-possessive-genitive-case-and-partitive-case-month-names.html ? If you feel like looking up strings for a specific language (not the grammatical case though), go to http://unicode.org/cldr/trac/browser/trunk/common/main , choose your favorite language, and search for <monthContext type="format"><monthWidth type="wide"> vs. <monthContext type="stand-alone"><monthWidth type="wide">. If strings differ, a different case is used. :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
