[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 137 bytes --]

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

The conversion needs a fix but this is how you can do it.

\defineenumeration
   [test]
   [text=,
    numbercommand=\groupedcommand{}{~exemple},
    numberconversion=ordinal]

\mainlanguage [fr]

\starttext

\starttest
\input knuth
\stoptest

\starttest
\input knuth
\stoptest

\stoptext

core-con.lua (line 1155):

local ordinals = {
     [...]
     french = function(n)
         if n == 1 then
             return "er"
+       else
+           return "e"
         end
     end,
}

This works for me:

\defineenumeration
   [test]
   [text=,
    alternative=serried,
    width=fit,
    distance=.5em,
    numbercommand=\groupedcommand{}{~exemple},
    numberconversion=ordinal]

\mainlanguage [fr]

\starttext

\starttest
\input knuth
\stoptest

\starttest
\input knuth
\stoptest

\stoptext

Hi Wolfgang,

Thanks for the example and the fix, but I would rather think that the « french » part of ordinals should be

	french = function(n)
		if n == 1 then
			return « er"
		else
			 return « ème"
		end
	end,

Now if this were not accepted as a fix in core-con.lua, is there a way for a user to change the default to the above choice in his document ?

Best regards: Otared

Except if you have something like “1ère image”… Ah, languages are so messy (no pun with recent events in Paris intended).

it is no problem to fix if you all can agree on what/how to fix ...

I forgot this : how to reduce the font size for the exponents "er", "e" ?

Sure… But then maybe it is possible to define one’s own « ordinals.french » for messy cases :-)

The exponents are placed with \high and you can change the style with

     \setuphigh[style=...]

but this affects all texts which use \high.

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
