-// The above is not a great localization because one would usually
-// write "2 minutes ago" in Estonian as "2 minutit tagasi", however
-// one would write "2 minutes into the future" as "2 minuti pärast"
-// which cannot be achieved with localization support this simple.
-// This is because Estonian has case suffixes attached directly
-// to the end of the word). As a workaround, the above localizations
-// will say "2 minutit tulevikus" which is understandable but
-// not as fluent.
