Android Question Please help with translation.

Sorry for being off topic.
In Russian, for the abbreviated spelling of the phrase “birthday”, the abbreviation ДР can be used (this is in Cyrillic). Is there a similar option for English, German and French?

 

[klaus]

In french, no.

 

[Sergey_New]

In french, no.

Thank you!

 

[agraham]

In English, no.

 

[Sergey_New]

In English, no.

Thank you!

Use DOB - Date Of Birth in English

 

[Sergey_New]

Use DOB - Date Of Birth in English

This gives me hope. There might be an abbreviation for other languages as well.

 

[LucaMs]

In italian no, it is already short: "Buon compleanno", just 15 chrs

I assume that the question was asked for graphic reasons, that is, there is little space; in this case, wouldn't it be better to use an icon?

 

[Sergey_New]

wouldn't it be better to use an icon?

Yes, the question was asked for graphic reasons. Need a short label in the context of “years have passed since birth.”
But this is not age.

English:
Birthdate (including year) = DOB / D.O.B.
Birthday (happens every year) = bday / b'day

I'd feel better if Oxford Dictionary had a listing for it

[Sergey_New]

English:
Birthdate (including year) = DOB / D.O.B. ...

It's not clear how this can help?

You asked about birthday, Alex_197 replied about date of birth, which might well be what you're actually looking for ie day, month and year

abbreviated spelling of the phrase “birthday”

Use DOB - Date Of Birth in English

and so I included both, next to each other, to highlight the subtle difference between the two:

English:
Birthdate (including year) = DOB / D.O.B.
Birthday (happens every year) = bday / b'day

Except for loyalty schemes that send out birthday cards/vouchers/etc each year, most data collection is of birthdate, not birthday, usually to confirm that a person is of a certain age eg over 13 for Facebook, over 18 to vote, under 30 for youth hostel, under 80 for travel insurance, etc.

An example of this is that passports show the date of birth aka birthdate, not birthday:

It is VERY clear.

 

[emexes]

It's not clear how this can help?

birthday = dd/mm and occurs every year (although people born on 29/2 might disagree with this)
birthdate = dd/mm/yyyy and only occurs once

I reverse-engineered (ish) the French version and googled 'abbreviation date de naissance', and apparently 'DDN' is used.

I see this the first time.

Thanks, I figured it out.

DDN

If you write Après DDN: 150 ans in French, it will be understood as After date of birth: 150 years?

 

[Sergey_New]

Use DOB

In English - After DOB: 150 years
There remains a translation into German

 

[emexes]

After date of birth: 150 years?

Are you talking about people, or about something else eg buildings, countries, organisations, music, books ?
