Re: [icu-support] Formatting numbers with ICU

[Steven R. L. <sr...@gm...>]

The chart you referenced is for plural categories not for number formatting.

I can confirm that CLDR Belarusian data does not have digits-ordinal that you are trying to access.   It’s available for these locales:

af am ar az bg ca ee en en_IN es es_419 fil fr ga hi id it ja kk km ko ky lo ms nl pt ro root ru sv ta th vi yue yue_Hans zh zh_Hant

If you want to contribute it, please file a CLDR bug at cldr.unicode.org <http://cldr.unicode.org/> thanks
