# When initializing an array with lists within lists, it means one of two things:
# Either it is a newbie who does not know how to make multi-dimensional arrays,
# Or it is a (at least mildly) experienced Perl-coder who, for some reason,
# wants to initialize a flat array with the concatenation of lists.
# I am a (at least mildly) experienced programmer who wants to use qw() and yet insert
# comments in some places.

=head1 NAME

DateTime::Calendar::FrenchRevolutionary::Locale::en -- English localization for the French
revolutionary calendar.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use DateTime::Calendar::FrenchRevolutionary::Locale;
  my $english_locale = DateTime::Calendar::FrenchRevolutionary::Locale->load('en');

  my $english_month_name =$english_locale->month_name($date);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides localization for DateTime::Calendar::FrenchRevolutionary.
Usually, its methods will be invoked only from DT::C::FR.

The month  names come  from Thomas Carlyle's  book. Most of  the feast
names  come from Alan  Taylor's kokogiak.com  web site,  later checked
with  Wikipedia  and   with  Jonathan  Badger's  French  Revolutionary
Calendar module written in Ruby.  The day names are from this module's
author.

=head1 USAGE

This module provides the following class methods:

=over 4

=item * new

Returns an  object instance,  which is just  a convenient value  to be
stored in a variable.

Contrary to  the widely used Gregorian  calendar, there is  no need to
customize a French Revolutionary calendar locale. Therefore, there are
no instance data and no instance methods.

=item * month_name ($date)

Returns an English translation for C<$date>'s month, where C<$date> is
a C<DateTime::Calendar::FrenchRevolutionary> object.

=item * month_abbreviation ($date)

Returns a 3-letter abbreviation for the English month name.

=item * day_name ($date)

Returns an English translation for the day name.

=item * day_abbreviation ($date)

Returns a 3-letter abbreviation for the English day name.

=item * feast_short ($date)

Hopefully  returns  an adequate  English  translation  for the  plant,
animal or tool that correspond to C<$date>'s feast.

Note: in some cases, the feast French name is left untranslated, while
in some other cases, the  translation is inadequate. If you are fluent
in both French and English, do not hesitate to send corrections to the
author.

=item * feast_long ($date)

Same  as  C<feast_short>, with  a  "day"  suffix,  as in  the  current
calendar's "groundhog day" or "Colombus day".

=item * feast_caps ($date)

Same as C<feast_long> with capitalized first letters.

=item * on_date ($date)

Gives a small text about the  events which occurred the same month and
day as C<$date> between the calendar's epoch (22 Sep 1792) and the day
it was rescinded (31 Dec 1805).

Most of these events come  from an anonymous propaganda book published
in year  VIII (1799--1800). The others are  common knowledge available
in any French History book or any encyclopedia.
