Dear list,

I've filed a bug regarding fuzzy clock on Xfce4 panel,
with proposed patch:
  http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10311

I'm posting here in case some other languages may have similar
or additional requirements.

The report reads:

---8<---
#: ../plugins/clock/clock-fuzzy.c:138
msgid "one"
#: ../plugins/clock/clock-fuzzy.c:139
msgid "two"
#: ../plugins/clock/clock-fuzzy.c:140
msgid "three"
...
#: ../plugins/clock/clock-fuzzy.c:149
msgid "twelve"

In Thai, the hours are called differently for AM and PM. In fact, they
are divided into periods like this: 1AM-5AM, 6AM-11AM, 12PM, 1PM-3PM,
4PM-6PM, 7PM-11PM, 12AM. But given the msgid's, adding msgctxt to
distinguish between AM and PM should be sufficient.

So, please add msgctxt to distinguish them for translation.
