Time in various languages...

I'm writing a (free) widget to be used with Yahoo! Widget Engine
(Konfabulator). What it does is show fuzzy time on screen. I.e.
"midnight", "a quarter to five", "twenty-five past eleven", "half past
one", etc. I'm planning several languages to choose from. Well, as many
as possible. I have so far included English, German, French, Italian,
Spanish, and Portuguese. Arabic and a couple of other will follow.

I'm looking for kind souls willing to:
- Verify existing languages.
- Give me help and guidelines for other languages. What I need is
native speakers able to master how time is really said.

What's needed to help:
- downloading and installing Yahoo! Widget Engine from
http://widgets.yahoo.com. That's free software and adware free
(provided that you unchecked the Yahoo ads boxes while installing).
- downloading the current widget from http://fredbotton.free.fr (file
is International Clock followed by its version number and .widget
extension).

Best thing is to get in touch with me on my email address rather than
replying in the n.g. to help flooding, I guess ;)

Many thanks in advance!
Fred
