文斯回答的土耳其语本地化版本。

    const int SECOND = 1;
    const int MINUTE = 60 * SECOND;
    const int HOUR = 60 * MINUTE;
    const int DAY = 24 * HOUR;
    const int MONTH = 30 * DAY;

    var ts = new TimeSpan(DateTime.UtcNow.Ticks - yourDate.Ticks);
    double delta = Math.Abs(ts.TotalSeconds);

    if (delta < 1 * MINUTE)
        return ts.Seconds + " saniye önce";

    if (delta < 45 * MINUTE)
        return ts.Minutes + " dakika önce";

    if (delta < 24 * HOUR)
        return ts.Hours + " saat önce";

    if (delta < 48 * HOUR)
        return "dün";

    if (delta < 30 * DAY)
        return ts.Days + " gün önce";

    if (delta < 12 * MONTH)
    {
        int months = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Floor((double)ts.Days / 30));
        return months + " ay önce";
    }
    else
    {
        int years = Convert.ToInt32(Math.Floor((double)ts.Days / 365));
        return years + " yıl önce";
    }

我也建议在客户端进行计算。服务器工作更少。

文森特接受的答案做出了许多武断的决定。为什么45分钟舍入为一小时，而45秒不舍入为一分钟？在年和月的计算中，它的圈复杂度增加了，这使得遵循逻辑变得更加复杂。它假设TimeSpan是相对于过去（2天前）的，而它很可能是在未来（2天后）。它定义了不必要的常量，而不是使用TimeSpan.TicksPerSecond等。

此实现解决了上述问题，并更新了语法以使用开关表达式和关系模式

{
    const int daysInWeek = 7;
    const int daysInMonth = 30;
    const int daysInYear = 365;
    const long threshold = 100 * TimeSpan.TicksPerMillisecond;
    @this = @this.TotalSeconds < 0
        ? TimeSpan.FromSeconds(@this.TotalSeconds * -1)
        : @this;
    return (@this.Ticks + threshold) switch

当您知道查看者的时区时，以日为单位使用日历日可能会更清晰。我不熟悉.NET库，所以我不知道如何在C#中实现这一点。

在消费者网站上，你也可以在一分钟内用手洗。“不到一分钟前”或“刚刚”就足够了。

public static string ToRelativeDate(DateTime input)

    string Suffix = " ago";

    if (TotalMinutes < 0.0)
    {
        TotalMinutes = Math.Abs(TotalMinutes);
        Suffix = " from now";
    }

    var aValue = new SortedList<double, Func<string>>();
    aValue.Add(0.75, () => "less than a minute");
    aValue.Add(1.5, () => "about a minute");
    aValue.Add(45, () => string.Format("{0} minutes", Math.Round(TotalMinutes)));
    aValue.Add(90, () => "about an hour");
    aValue.Add(1440, () => string.Format("about {0} hours", Math.Round(Math.Abs(oSpan.TotalHours)))); // 60 * 24
    aValue.Add(2880, () => "a day"); // 60 * 48
    aValue.Add(43200, () => string.Format("{0} days", Math.Floor(Math.Abs(oSpan.TotalDays)))); // 60 * 24 * 30
    aValue.Add(86400, () => "about a month"); // 60 * 24 * 60
    aValue.Add(525600, () => string.Format("{0} months", Math.Floor(Math.Abs(oSpan.TotalDays / 30)))); // 60 * 24 * 365 
    aValue.Add(1051200, () => "about a year"); // 60 * 24 * 365 * 2
    aValue.Add(double.MaxValue, () => string.Format("{0} years", Math.Floor(Math.Abs(oSpan.TotalDays / 365))));

    return aValue.First(n => TotalMinutes < n.Key).Value.Invoke() + Suffix;
