Hello,
The Basque date declination grammar requires some logic but we can't
introduce due to the software design.
''Here is a clear example of the problem:
**Current Django Output:** 2025ko urriaren 11a
**Correct Grammatical Form:** 2025eko urriaren 11
There are two errors here based on conditional rules:
**Year Suffix:** It should be 2025eko. The suffix changes based on the
last sound of the year number. Years ending in a consonant sound (like
2025, bost) must use -eko, while the current output -ko is for years
ending in a vowel (like 2024, lau).
**Day Article:** It should be 11. The -a article should not be added
to numbers that already end in the vowel ‘a’. The number 11 in Basque is
hamaika, so adding another -a (hamaika-a) is grammatically wrong.''
My proposal is to change the Basque (eu) date template with "(e)ko"
instead of "ko" in the year suffix and "(a)" instead of "a" in the day
suffix
