Display the current time in words, and with whatever snarky text you want around it!

* English, Czech, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Slovak, Slovenian, and Spanish languages are supported.
* "Contact developer" to request translating to another language (or to report bugs).
* Foreground and background colors can be specified in the app settings
* The language to use can be specified in the app settings, or it can use the language specified in the device settings.
* The clock mode (12-hour or 24-hour) can be specified in the app settings, or it can use the device setting.

I can't take all the credit for this watchface. The initial design/layout was shamelessly copied from another watchface I saw posted online. (It was for a non-Garmin device.) I decided to implement it for Garmin. Please contact me if you are the author (or know the author) of the original watchface, so I can give proper credit.
To change the colors/text settings, see the User Guide. (https://tinyurl.com/WordMcWordFaceUserGuide)
Notes on non-English languages:
* My knowledge of Spanish is sketchy at best, and nonexistent for other languages - please let me know if there are issues with the way the time is constructed, or how the screen "reads".
* Some languages will append text to whatever is set for the "line 1" value. For example - on Spanish, it will append "es la" or "son las", depending on the time of day.
* Some languages will append/prepend text to "line 2". ("Y" for Spanish...)
* If you see a 'box' character on the screen where a normal character should be, it means I need to add that character to my font file. Please click the 'contact developer' link, or send me an email, so that I can fix it.
