[asterisk-bugs] [JIRA] (ASTERISK-25760) SayUnixTime aborts when it tries to give the time in French

    [ https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-25760?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=229713#comment-229713 ] 

Rusty Newton commented on ASTERISK-25760:
-----------------------------------------

I created ASTERISK-25810 for clarity. We'll address the issue there when resources are available to do so.

We shouldn't make any short-term changes to Asterisk since we've only had this single report over the past decade and it appears to have been this way forever. We'll make the appropriate changes when we figure it out on ASTERISK-25810.

If we add additional files we need to contact the sounds contributor for each language. We currently do not have contributors for the languages you mentioned, other than French.

I'm going to close this out and assign you as the reporter on ASTERISK-25810 which I've opened up.

Thanks,

> Hi!
> I have a problem getting SayUnixTime to say the time in French.
> Each time it wants to say the number of seconds it aborts with a missing file.
> The code in say.c (more specifically I believe the one in ast_say_date_with_format_fr) tries to get the sound file from "digits/second" but both "second" and "seconds" are not in that directory but the one just above that.
> Removing "digits/" would not be enough though because when "second" was translated into French they did not translate it into the unit of time but actually in "2nd" (ie as in first, second, third, etc...) and unfortunately in French this is not pronounced the same as the unit of time ("deuxième" vs "seconde").
> Please note that It is also possible to say  "second" but this is not how it was translated and it is not pronounced the same way as the unit of time either ("seconde").
> Fortunately in French both "second" ("seconde") and "seconds" ("secondes") are pronounced exactly the same (the "s" is not pronounced) so the "seconds" file could be used...
> I have, as far as I know, the latest (and greatest! (-; ) sound files for French...
> Thank you and have a nice day!
> Nicolas
