Hello,
Is it possible to create an enumeration style to get this :
1 ^ {er} exemple
2 ^ {e} exemple
3 ^ {e} exemple ....
Thanks
Fabrice

The purpose of abbreviations is, well, to abbreviate. Even though ‘ème’ is seen a lot, it’s wrong because it’s too long. Source (pretty official): https://www.academie-francaise.fr/abreviations-des-adjectifs-numeraux So for numbers starting from 3 the proper abbreviation is ‘e’. For 1 and 2 it’s more complicated, however, as it depends on the gender. For 1: * masculine: 1er * feminine: 1re In addition for 2, and when the enumeration contains only 2 elements, there is the option to use the older word ‘second(e)’: * masculine: 2d * feminine: 2de For 3 elements and above, we always use the newer word ‘deuxième’, which is abbreviated in the form of the generic ‘e’. While that rule is optional, people who use tools like ConTeXt are likely to pay attention to that kind of details and will probably want to use it. Finally, we have to add an ‘s’ to all the abbreviations if the plural is needed (the 1st (1ers) elements, the 2nd (2ds or 2es) elements, etc., vs the 1st (1er) element, 2nd (2d or 2e) element…). Now, can all those subtleties be coded in a function? :) Vincent > Hans > > > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE > Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands > tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > _______________________________________________________________________ > ____________ > If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry > to the Wiki! > > maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg- > context > webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net > archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ > wiki : http://contextgarden.net > _______________________________________________________________________ > ____________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://context.aanhet.net archive : https://bitbucket.org/phg/context-mirror/commits/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 12+ messages in thread
