Some of the information can be complex. Some items in CLDR have a very specific purpose and meaning, but a language expert may be unfamiliar with these purposes and meanings. Sometimes close interaction between experts can be difficult over the phone or face to face. Interacting over e-mail is easier.H  0j ? 3380___PPT10.}HXJB 0 (  d  c $LD      0͑ ? x  ___PPTMAC11 ,namd$ Times Roman L___PPT10,$___PPT9d\ rNow we will look at some examples of conflicting data. These are items which turn up when data comparisons are made. Not everything is an either-or case. Sometimes we find that a restructuring of the data is in order to accomodate both the old and new data because both could be correct. Typographical errors: Sometimes this is due to data being entered by keyboard incorrectly. Other times it can be due to using one locale s translations as a template for another locale s data. Regional differences: Regional and sub-regional differences may require the decision to keep both sets of data in different locales rather than choosing one over another. For example, German in Germany and Switzerland frequently have spelling differences, and sometimes American English is different from British English. Context of usage: There is more than one way to sort German text. There is normal German sorting, and there is German phonebook sorting. For example,  f and  of sort in differently between normal German sorting and German phonebook sorting. Parts of speech: Some languages make a distinction between the way month names are written when cited independently, and when written as part of a date. For example,  March 2004 at the heading of a Calendar would be written as just the name March, but the date  3rd March, 2004 would require a different form meaning  of March . CLDR accommodates such languages using a type value of  standalone or  format , respectively. Standards vs. common use: CLDR uses the commonly used translation or format for the default. However alternates are allowed in CLDR. Sometimes there is more than one right answer. Misunderstanding: Sometimes translators don t have enough knowledge about how CLDR works. Sometimes a translator will try to translate the format and characters of a date format instead of just the format. The localized characters of a date format are in a separate field of CLDR. Uncommon cases: There are some items and concepts in CLDR that are not commonly known by all translators. For example, how does a translator translate the word  Interlingua (a language) when the translator has never heard of the Interlingua language. Sometimes translators guess, and these guesses will appear during the vetting process. Individual preferences: Some people have different preferences, and this can vary between translators. For example, the US military usually use 24 hour time, but the rest of the United States uses 12 hour time. 0gZ0g  K  +   n     ,( H  0j ? 33 0 ~`(  `^ ` S LD   /x ` c $/ x  / H ` 0j ? 3380___PPT10.?@(A_* 0 ~ h(  h^ h S LD   x h c $ x   H h 0j ? 3380___PPT10.@PW 0 ~0l(  l^ l S LD   x l c $  x   H l 0j ? 3380___PPT10.@aX' 0 @ph(  p^ p S LD    p c $ x   ^JThe Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR) was developed in response to the need for standardized locales based on Unicode. CLDR provides key building blocks for software to support the world s languages. This data is used by a wide spectrum of companies for their software internationalization and localization  adapting software to the conventions of different languages and locations for such common tasks as formatting of dates, times, time zones, numbers, and currency values, sorting text; and choosing languages or countries by name, among others. The CLDR project collects and maintains locale data and uses the Locale Data Markup Language (LDML) to describe the data.H p 0j ? 3380___PPT10.@S% 0 `xc(  x^ x S LD    x c $  x   YEA locale is a string identifier that refers to specific linguistic and cultural preferences. These preferences can include date/time formatting, number formatting, spelling of certain names and many other items. These preferences can change over time due to cultural and political reasons. For example, modern Spanish sorts differently from older Spanish from the 1990s. In another example, some countries mandate how specific regions are referred to (this can happen when ownership of a region is in dispute). Of course, these types of preferences are not absolute. For example, most people in the United States use 12 hour time, but there are some people in the US that use 24 hour time. There are some languages, like French and Japanese, that have published standards for how to sort those languages. There are some other languages that may not have enough exposure to other cultures to have names for certain places or concepts. There are many things that locale data can cover. It could cover industry specific topics, like shoe size. CLDR limits its scope to a few specific topics.

We also welcome vetters that can verify that data is correct, tool writers and many other people interested in the topic of locale data. When submitting data to the CLDR project, references to standards, dictionaries or actual examples of every day use frequently help to get the locale data vetted correctly.

These preferences can include date/time formatting, number formatting, spelling of certain names and many other items. These preferences can change over time due to cultural and political reasons. For example, modern Spanish sorts differently from older Spanish from the 1990s. In another example, some countries mandate how specific regions are referred to (this can happen when ownership of a region is in dispute). Of course, these types of preferences are not absolute. For example, most people in the United States use 12 hour time, but there are some people in the US that use 24 hour time. There are some languages, like French and Japanese, that have published standards for how to sort those languages. There are some other languages that may not have enough exposure to other cultures to have names for certain places or concepts. There are many things that locale data can cover. It could cover industry specific topics, like shoe size. CLDR limits its scope to a few specific topics.
