# Locale override examples for timeago
You can represent time statements in most western languages where
a prefix and/or suffix is used.
The default case is to use suffix only (as in English), which you
do by providing the `suffixAgo` and `suffixFromNow` settings in
the strings hash (earlier versions of timeago used the deprecated
`ago` and `fromNow` options). If present, they are used.
2 minutes [suffixAgo]
2 minutes [suffixFromNow]
In case you want to use prefix only instead of
suffix (e.g. Greek), you provide the `prefixAgo` and
`prefixFromNow` options in the strings hash and leave `suffixAgo`
and `suffixFromNow` empty or null.
[prefixAgo] 2 minutes
[prefixFromNow] 2 minutes
For languages where you want to use a prefix only for future
tense and prefix/suffix for past tense (for example swedish), you
can combine the prefix and suffixes as needed.
[prefixAgo] 2 minutes [suffixAgo]
[prefixFromNow] 2 minutes
