NSDateComponentsFormatter for not correctly translating German?

Question

NSDateComponentsFormatter *formatter;
formatter = [[NSDateComponentsFormatter alloc] init];
formatter.unitsStyle = NSDateComponentsFormatterUnitsStyleShort;
formatter.allowedUnits = NSCalendarUnitDay;
NSString *string = [formatter stringFromTimeInterval:seconds];

This is returning 2 d for German, while I would expect 2 t? If the style is changed NSDateComponentsFormatterUnitsStyleFull then I see 2 Tage

I also tried French and Russian to compare. Seeing correct short letters, ie. 2 j and 2 д respectively

Any German developers can shed light on this? Is this a known bug? Using iOS 9.3

Answer 1

d is the correct German abbreviation. It refers to the Latin word "dies" (meaning "day").
