### Supported formats


Our parser implements a rule-based strategy to interpret a diverse array of date and time formats, utilizing grammatical inflection to parse intervals.

The following formats are currently supported:

#### Date Formats:
- **ISO Standard Dates**: dates formatted to the ISO 8601 standard.
- Examples: `2020-01-15`, `2020-12-30-án`, `2020.12.29`.
- **Named Months**: months indicated by name, optionally with day numbers and/or year. Day numbers may be expressed lexically.
- Examples: `tavaly február`, `2020 február 3`, `jövő március`, `jövő február 12-én`, `március elsején`.
- **Relative Time References**: relative days, weeks, months, or years.
- Examples: `tegnap`, `ma`, `holnap`, `idén`, `tavaly`, `múlt héten`, `a múlt hónapban`, `idei események`.
- **Named Days of the Week**: references to specific weekdays, accounting for past, present, and future contexts.
- Examples: `múlt vasárnap`, `kedden`, `ezen a heten hétfőn`, `jövő héten szerdán`.
- **Counted Time Frames**: expressions indicating a number of days or weeks ago or in the future.
- Examples: `1 héttel ezelőtt`, `6 nappal ezelőtt`, `5 nap múlva`.
- **Historical Periods**: periods up to the present date, defined by days, weeks, months, or years.
- Examples: `az előző két hétben`, `az előző két évi adatok`, `az előző 10 nap eredménye`.

#### Time Formats:
- **Digital Clock Format**: time expressed in digital clock notation.
- Examples: `18:12-kor`, `06:45`.
- **Natural Language Time**: time described in conversational terms.
- Examples: `este fél 8`, `reggel nyolc előtt hat perccel`, `nyolc óra nyolc perckor`, `20 óra 49 perckor`, `este negyed 8 előtt 6 perccel`.
- **Abbreviated Time Formats**: certain abbreviated forms of time expression.
- Examples: `16h-kor`.

#### Interval Formats:
- **Inflection-Implied Ranges**: intervals detected through grammatical inflections, indicating a start and end point.
- Examples: `február 13-tól 17-ig`, `keddtől péntekig`, `januártól februárig`, `2020-10-12-től 2020-11-01-ig`.
- **Open-Ended Intervals**: expressions where the start or end of the interval is unspecified, using inflections to imply boundaries.
- Examples: `keddtől`, `február elsejéig`.


### Setting search scope in case of ambiguous input

For the function `text2datetime` the parameter `search_scope` is used to inform what is the desired time interval to parse the inputs.

### Datetime to text

The library is also capable of turning datetime objects into their Hungarian text representation.
