International Clock

This Widget tells time in a fuzzy way in several different languages.
It is designed to be displayed on the right, left or middle of your desktop. And, most importantly, easy to read. Therefore it features no background, no fancy effects, just plain text. You can choose the font size and its color.
Original idea comes from Fuzzy Clock 1 and 2 Widgets by Tel, then Eric Henninger.

Languages supported include English, German, French, Portuguese, Italian, Arabic, Polish, Spanish, Hungarian, Danish… More

Current Version: 1.3

This is indeed an interesting use of the widget! I've actually learned a lot in several very different languages by doing it... Thanks for your comment, Scooby!

Good implementation of a good idea! This is a useful tool for teaching young children to read an analog clock.

I'm sorry you don't like the fuzzy feature, and the 2 pixel background (it doesn't come by default anyway). Definitely looks like this clock is not what you're searchng for :)

i dont like the way it rounds the number and says its ten past nine when its seven past nine really. i dont the the way the 2 pixel background looks either.

You're right, the width is large (due to large sentences in some languages). But offscreen is not supposed to happen, it checks and relays on the actual width of the screen... (main screen in case of a dual/triple display). I'll dig on this...

BTW there's another bug preventing the widget to chime when not brought on top. Silly me.

And many thanks to all of you who commented! :)
