Hi, I have a perl code that recognises the name of the days and translates them into an other language. My code looks like:

next unless /(Sunday|Monday|Tuesday|Wednesday|Thursday|Friday|Saturday
+)/g;


#there is one file for evert language containing the translations
open (SRC, "<db-dates/$src") or die "can't open file '$src' $!";
my @src = <SRC>;
chomp(@src);



for my $i (0 .. $#src){
        $dayname =~ s/@src[$i]/@tgt[$i]/g
   }

given($tgt){
      when("fr_fr") { print “$day" ; }
      when("it_it") { print “$day" ; }
      default { print “$day" ; }
   }

This script, recognises the days and translate them correctly, but I am not able to print the rest of the phrase. For instance, if the sentence is Today is Monday I want to print Today is lundi for french or Today is lunedi for italian. At the moment is translates only lundi or lunedi. Thank you in advance for your time.

• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
