  Gender:
- For Portuguese, French & Spanish, we're using m & f options to saynumber() to indicate if the gender is masculine or feminine.
- For Danish, we're using c & n options to saynumber() to indicate if the gender is commune or neutrum.
- This still needs to be implemented for German (although the option is passed to the function, it currently does nothing with it).
+ For Some languages the numbers differ for gender and plural
+ Use the option argument 'f' for female, 'm' for male and 'n' for neuter in languages like Portuguese, French, Spanish and German.
+ use the option argument 'c' is for commune and 'n' for neuter gender in nordic languages like Danish, Swedish and Norwegian.
+ use the option argument 'p' for plural enumerations like in German
  
  Date/Time functions currently have less languages supported than saynumber().
