NAME

Template::Plugin::Lingua::EN::Numbers - TT2 interface to Lingua::EN::Numbers module

SYNOPSIS

  [% USE Lingua.EN.Numbers -%]
  [% checksum = content FILTER num2en -%]
  [% checksum = content FILTER num2en_ordinal -%]
  [% checksum = content FILTER year2en -%]
  [% checksum = content FILTER ordinate -%]

DESCRIPTION

The Lingua::EN::Numbers Template Toolkit plugin provides access to the Lingua::EN::Numbers, Lingua::EN::Numbers::Years and Lingua::EN::Numbers::Ordinate module functions, to translate number values to their names.

When you invoke

  [% USE Lingua.EN.Numbers %]

the following filters (and vmethods of the same name) are installed into the current context:

num2en

Converts a number (such as 123) into English text (such as "one hundred and twenty-three").

num2en_ordinal

Converts a number into the ordinal form in words, so 54 becomes "fifty-fourth".

year2en

Converts a number (such as 1984) into English text (such as "nineteen eighty-four").

ordinate

Converts a number (such as 3) into ordinal form (such as "3rd").
