Created attachment 153394 [details] Upper Soriban date format selection dialog Hi, I tested the feature "Insert Field" adding a date field. Unfortunately, I detected that there are wrong date formats for Upper Sorbian (hsb) and Lower Sorbian (dsb). In the Upper Sorbian date format samples even the wrong separator between day and month is used in different formats, a comma instead of a point. Sorbian date formats are similar to the German ones with one exception: the full date format. In Sorbian full date format the month is always in genitive, similar to the full date format in Czech, Polish, or Slovak. Unlike German, the month name is always in lower case. The genitive month names are: januara, feburara, měrca, apryla, meje (Upper Sorbian), maja (Lower Sorbian), junija, julija, awgusta, septembra, oktobra, nowembra, decembra The nominative forms are: januar, feburar, měrc, apryl, meja (Upper Sorbian), maj (Lower Sorbian), junij, julij, awgust, september, oktober, nowember, december Example: 14. awgusta 2019 (not 14. awgust!) Please fix the date formats. Please find attached a screenshot of the date format selection dialog.
The abbreviated genitive month names are identical to the abbreviated nominative month names?
Hi Eike, yes, they are identical. Within the first three letters, abbreviated names are triliteral only, is no difference. jan, feb, měr, apr, mej (Upper Sorbian), maj (Lower Sorbian), jun, jul, awg, sep, okt, now, dec There is only syncope of e in the month names of september, oktober, nowember, december before the genitive ending --> septembra, oktobra, nowembra, decembra, But this doesn't play a part for the abbreviated names.

Hi Eike, thank you for creating the patches. They look fine but you used the Upper Sorbian full name "meja" for "May" as abbreviated name. Since all abbreviated names should be triliteral, you should change meja to "mej". Thanks in advance.
That was always there already for the nominative names, but I can change. Similar for March "měrc".
Thanks.

Thank you, Eike, for this patch as well.
Hi, I've just installed LO 6.3.1.1 and saw that the correct date formats are used for Upper Sorbian and Lower Sorbian there now. Thank you very much to all who helped to fix this bug. I consider this bug fixed.
