The "Default" entry selects the language of the user interface for the operating system. If this language is not available in the LibreOffice installation, the language of the LibreOffice installation is the default language.

If the language you are after is not in the list, download the corresponding language pack from the LibreOffice website.

### Qindaa'ina gitoo biyyaa

Specifies the locale setting of the country setting. This influences settings for numbering, currency and units of measure.

The "Default" entry selects the locale which name is reported by the operating system.

Jijjiiramni badhee kanaa battalaan raawwata.Garuu,gitoonni muraasni kan durtiin tottolchaman yoo galmeen haaraa fe'ame qofa jijjiiramu.

### Maallaqa durtii

Specifies the default currency that is used for the currency format and the currency fields. If you change the locale setting, the default currency changes automatically.

### Date acceptance patterns

Specifies the date acceptance patterns for the current locale. Calc spreadsheet and Writer table cell input needs to match locale dependent date acceptance patterns before it is recognized as a valid date.

If you type numbers and characters that correspond to the defined date acceptance patterns in a table cell, and then move the cursor outside of the cell, LibreOffice will automatically recognize and convert the input to a date, and format it according to the locale setting.

The initial pattern(s) in Date acceptance patterns are determined by the locale (set in Locale setting), but you can modify these default patterns, and add more patterns. Use ; to separate each pattern.

Patterns can be composed according to the following rules:

- A pattern must start with D, M, or Y, and include at least two items, with at least one separator between each one.

  A pattern may also include all three, in any order.

- Y means year, M means month, and D means day, regardless of which locale is set. Each can only be used once in a pattern.

- . - : / , can be used as separators between and after D, M, and Y.

  Any combination of separators can be used, and more than one separator can be used between D, M, and Y, but the input must match the separator pattern exactly for recognition.

- Patterns can combine different separators, and may include a trailing separator.

  Examples of valid patterns are: D,Y ; Y-M ; M.D.Y ; D-M/Y ; M.D.

If you change the Locale setting, the date acceptance pattern will be reset to the new locale default, and any user-defined modifications or additions will be lost.

In addition to the explicit patterns defined in the edit box, input matching the Y-M-D pattern is implicitly recognized and converted automatically to a date. Input that starts from 1 to 31 is not interpreted with this implicit Y-M-D pattern. Since LibreOffice 3.5, this input is formatted as YYYY-MM-DD (ISO 8601).

For all patterns, two-digit year input is interpreted according to the setting in Tools - Options - General - Year (Two Digits).
